Today’s post is another wonderful recipe from a wonderful blog called Plain Chicken. I have tried several of their recipes in the last few months and they have all turned out great! I can’t recommend their site enough. Go check it out now! Well, maybe not RIGHT now…you can finish my post first.
This is close to the perfect weeknight meal since it is tasty, simple, quick, and did I mention tasty? Try it and see if you like it as much as we did.
1 lb. ground beef
1 lb. Italian sausage
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped bell pepper
1 tsp. garlic powder
26 oz. jar spaghetti sauce
sliced cheese of your choice
buns
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the beef, sausage, onion and pepper until there is no pink left in the meat and the veggies have softened. Drain the fat and put the meat back in the pan.
Stir in the garlic powder and sauce. Simmer on low-medium for 5 to 10 minutes while you prepare the buns. Put the cheese on the buns and put them in a low oven for a few minutes, just until the cheese starts to melt really well. I would have loved to use provolone on these, but I was out so American had to do.
Scoop a little of the meat mixture on the bun and enjoy!
