Simple Ground Beef Dinner 🍽️

Typically when I grocery shop and don’t bring a list I’m thinking “Protein, vegetables, carb.” That’s it. Now if I’m going to be making something more specific that calls for tons of ingredients sure.

On the weekdays the last thing I want to do is spend hours in the kitchen. Weekends are a different story. Even then I don’t necessarily want to 🥴😂

This dinner is super easy to whip together and also doesn’t break the bank. Which we are all about around here!

2lbs Grass fed ground beef $12

2 bundles of Asparagus $4

2 sweet potatoes $1.90

$18 dollars isn’t bad for this meal and for my husband to have lunch for tomorrow! 🙌🏼

Preparing a healthy dinner doesn't have to be complicated or expensive. This ground beef dinner not only provides a great source of protein but also incorporates fresh vegetables like asparagus and sweet potatoes that are rich in vitamins and minerals. Ground beef is versatile; you can season it with garlic, sea salt, and your choice of spices to enhance flavor. For the asparagus, consider roasting it lightly with a drizzle of coconut oil to bring out its natural sweet taste. Sweet potatoes can be diced and baked alongside the beef for a harmonious meal. To make meal prep even easier, cook a larger batch of beef and store it for lunch the next day. This dish is also great for health-conscious eaters as it supports a balanced diet while being totally satisfying. Don't forget to consider portion sizes and complement this meal with a side salad for even more nutrition. Enjoy your quick, homemade dinner that leaves both your wallet and your taste buds happy!
