You see those yummilicious looking fries in the picture? Those are Ore-Ida Steak Fries! It's true!! I don't normally use frozen fries, but this month the allrecipes.com Allstars (that's ME!) were asked to give them a try, and you know what? I liked them! They were so easy to make. I just spread them out on a baking sheet and popped them in the oven for about 20 minutes! They came out crispy and delish! Don even liked them! And that's saying a lot! He's turned into quite the food snob :)
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground chuck
- 1/3 cup chopped onion
- 1/3 cup chopped green pepper
- 1 teaspoon fresh minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
- 3/4 cup ketchup
- 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar

Directions
- In a skillet over mid-high heat, begin browning the ground beef. When it starts to brown add the 1/3 cup chopped onion, 1/3 cup chopped green pepper, and 1 teaspoon fresh minced garlic. Continue to cook over mid-high heat until meat is cooked through. Soak up any liquid with a paper towel (be careful! don't burn yourself or your house down!!) or you can drain off the liquid.
