Organic and grass-fed meats are pricier than conventional meats so the best way to get more meals out of each package is to add veggies!  Adding in veggies like peppers and onions can almost double the yield you would get if you just browned up the meat.  Do you have a picky eater that doesn’t like the taste or texture of veggies?  Blend the green peppers and onions in a mini-food processor instead of dicing them.  The veggies should just melt into the ground meat mixture and they won’t even know they are in there!!
