I thought this list of cheap ground beef recipes would be great to share with you all since I know that we can all use budget friendly recipes that will help stretch our food budgets over the coming months. Mayne of these recipes only take about 30 minutes to make so they also take very little effort and time as well.
Depending on the meal, you might also want to bulk it up and make it more filling so that the ground beef stretches every further. Many of these meals would go well with egg noodles, tater tots, macaroni noodles, or mashed potatoes.
I love to make this when we are trying to make a protein-filled breakfast! I never use a specific recipe, but I just brown up some ground beef with garlic and onion powders then I add in whatever veggies I happen to have on hand. Spinach and diced sweet potatoes are some of my favorites to add.
This recipe is something that my grandma used to make all the time! It can also be found in the original Fannie Farmer cookbook. Mix 1/2 pound cooked ground beef plus 1/2 cup cooked rice with a bit of salt and pepper. Add a little Tomato Soup from a can to the beef and set aside. Boil 8 large cabbage leaves in water for 2 minutes until they are soft and pliable. Place a small amount of the beef mixture in the middle of each cabbage leaf and roll up into a tight bundle. Put a toothpick in the roll to help it stay. Put the rolls in a casserole dish along with the rest of the soup and 1/2 cup of water. Cover and bake at 350 for 20 minutes.
I have the basic recipe for this here on my website but my book, Little House Living: The Make Your Own Guide goes into more detail on how to change it up with many different varieties. No matter how you make it, this is a great way to stretch a single pound of hamburger into a large meal.
This is one of my favorite recipes to make because you can literally add any amount of ground beef you happen to have on hand. If you have a small amount of cooked ground beef leftover from another meal, this delicious comfort food is how to use it up!
I agree about meat prices. When ground beef is on sale, I make multiple meat loaves and freeze all but one. I also make burger patties with 4 oz portions I weigh out, then separate them with parchment paper. These are packed with two buns. When I need a quick meal, burgers are perfect.
I just want to let you know how much you are appreciated! I live in a very rural county in Oregon and poverty is great. I serve meals on wheels once a week. We also go to the Indian reservation. People here go to the food bank once a month also. trying to find more recipes made from the staples that come in food boxes is sometimes hard We get alot of rice, beans all varieties.lentils. for a month you get 3lbs of hamburger. so stretching it as far as we can is the goal. I am 67 years old, have MS and other health problems. My income is $801.00 a month. There are alot of people living on less. We all contribute and share and help each other. Anyway thankyou lady and God bless you and your family and keep up the good work.

The I-45 is a major artery connecting Houston, Texas with Galveston, on the coast, but over the decades this stretch of highway has taken on a more sinister use; it's become a dumping ground for serial killers.
Strain/sprain-related incidents account for 40% of the total injuries of Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) employees. Over the past 5 years the most common strain/sprain injury was of the lower back; 50% of these injuries were caused by lifting tasks. The goal of this project is to create a guidebook presenting a set of ergonomic recommendations for common TxDOT workplace tasks and a Stretch and Flex program designed to reduce strain/sprain-related incidents. Research studies have shown that muscle strengthening exercises can reduce workplace strain/sprain-related incidents. However, most of the Stretch and Flex programs currently being implemented involve more stretching than flexing. Thus, current Stretch and Flex programs may not be as beneficial as they could be. Since injury of the low back is the most common work-related injury, strengthening the core musculature is the best preventative strategy. The challenge that current Stretch and Flex programs face in achieving this goal may be that traditional core-strengthening exercises are performed on the ground, which may not work well for employees who work outdoors or are not dressed for being on the ground. Thus, the Stretch and Flex program that will be created will involve exercises done in the standing position to strengthen the core musculature as well as target other muscles and joints susceptible to work-related injuries. The University of Texas at Austin (UT) has developed instructional videos for vertical core strengthening, and has developed and implemented exercise programs for field and office workers. The user-friendly guidebook that we will create for TxDOT employees will contain ergonomic recommendations for TxDOT maintenance and office workers as well as a Stretch and Flex program that will be superior to current programs. A guidebook will help TxDOT employees reduce their risk of injury through specific work-related ergonomic strategies and injury-prevention exercises designed to improve strength and flexibility. This program is expected to reduce the incidence of TxDOT strain/sprain-related incidents and substantially reduce associated costs, which have exceeded $3.7 million over the past 5 years.
Start on your back with your legs outstretched. Bring both knees up together and place your hands below the knee area on the top of the shin. An alternative place for your hands is the back of the thighs. Slowly bring your knees toward your chest, hold for ten seconds, then go back to starting position.
As shown, start with one foot above the chair, and one below resting on the ground. Raise the straightened leg upward against the bottom of the chair. Hold for ten seconds and then return the leg to the floor.
Start by sitting in a chair that is high enough so that the knee can bend to a ninety degree angle. Slowly raise the leg until it is horizontal. Hold for five seconds, and slowly let it return to the ground. Repeat with other leg. Do twenty repetitions, if able.
Start by lying on your back with your left leg bent upward. Keep your right leg completely extended straight out. Slowly raise your right leg to about a forty-five degree angle, keeping the leg locked straight. Hold for five seconds and then slowly lower to the flat, resting position. It is not necessary to take the leg straight up to ninety degrees, as the most difficult range of motion is the first two feet off the ground. Repeat twenty times. Switch to the left leg.
Lie on your back as shown. Raise your left leg and bring it across your body, trying to make it touch the ground by your right hand. Keep both your shoulders flat to the ground. Hold for twenty seconds, then return to starting position and repeat for the other leg. Do ten repetitions with each leg.
Professional wrestling holds include a number of set moves and pins used by performers to immobilize their opponents or lead to a submission. This article covers the various pins, stretches and transition holds used in the ring. Some wrestlers use these holds as their finishing maneuvers, often nicknaming them to reflect their character or persona. Moves are listed under general categories whenever possible.
An element borrowed from professional wrestling's catch wrestling origins, stretches (or submission holds) are techniques in which a wrestler holds another in a position that puts stress on the opponent's body. Stretches are usually employed to weaken an opponent or to force them to submit, either vocally or by tapping out: slapping the mat, floor, or opponent with a free hand three times. Many of these holds, when applied vigorously, stretch the opponent's muscles or twist their joints uncomfortably, hence the name. Chokes, although not in general stress positions like the other stretches, are usually grouped with stretches as they serve the same tactical purposes. In public performance, for safety's sake, stretches are usually not performed to the point where the opponent must submit or risk injury. Likewise, chokes are usually not applied to the point where they cut off the oxygen supply to the opponent's brain.
The wrestler goes to a fallen opponent and places the opponent's nearest arm over the wrestler's nearest shoulder before applying the crossface, where the attacking wrestler locks their hands around the opponent's chin (or lower face), then pulls back, stretching the opponent's neck and shoulder. Former NXT wrestler Johnny Gargano uses this hold as a finishing submission move, calling it the Garga-No-Escape. Drew McIntyre briefly used it in TNA as the Iron Maiden.
The wrestler bends one of his fingers into a hook and uses it to stretch the opponent's mouth or nose. An illegal hold under usual rules. Austin Aries uses a half surfboard variation, called Fish Hook of Doom, where the opponent is lying face down. He grabs one of the opponent's wrists with one hand and fish hooks the opponent's mouth with the other. He then places his knees against the opponent's stretched arm and pulls back with his arms.
The wrestler stands in front of the opponent while both people are facing the same direction, with some space in between the two. Then, the wrestler moves slightly to the left while still positioned in front of the opponent. The wrestler then uses the near hand to reach back and grab the opponent from behind the head, thus pulling the opponent's head above the wrestler's shoulder. Sometimes the free arm is placed at the top of the opponent's head. The move is also referred to as a "European headlock", due to its prominence in European wrestling. The two-handed version sees the wrestler use both hands and is sometimes referred to as a " chancery", "side head chancery" and, most often, a "cravate". This hold is a staple of European style wrestling and technical wrestling influenced by European wrestling. An inverted version of the cravate is used by Chris Hero as part of his "Hangman's Clutch" submissions in which the hand positioning is the same as a normal cravate but the facelock is connected around the face of the opponent, not from behind the opponent's head, thus pulling the opponent's head backwards rather than forwards, putting significant pressure on the neck by stretching it backwards and in other directions toward which the neck would not normally bend. This can also be a setup move for the 3/4 Facelock Jawbreaker, also known as the Stunner, made famous by Steve Austin.
