We are in a rut for meals during the week. I need some recipes that use beef. Ground beef, steak, whatever. I appreciate all the help I can get! Quick ones - I usually don't get home until 5:45.....

I'll post my Taco Soup Recipe for you tonight or tomorrow. Basically, brown some hamburger, add kidney beans, fresh or dried onions, stewed tomatoes, canned corn, hot sauce and spices and simmer for 20 minutes - BAM! dinner done. Some corn bread on the side is good or chips.
If you want I can give you guess on quantity and you can make it up since it sounds like you are a no measure type chef like myself. Or wait for recipe whatever you want.

Oh dear.... No, his total cholesterol was 72. 72!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He needs all the cholesterol he can get right now. Still lean beef, and more veggies and stuff, but he has to eat beef, nuts, avocados (which he hates), etc. He is actually on meds now to raise his cholesterol. Yes, we do have some weird issues going on with him! His iron was WAY low too, which is why the beef. His bad cholesterol was 18 and his good was 35..... Both are far too low. Weird, right?
