Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1/2 medium onion chopped finely
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 2 teaspoons beef bouillon paste I used Better Than Bouillon
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 2 cups whole milk
- salt & pepper to taste
- chopped fresh parsley optional, to taste
Instructions
- Add the beef and onion to a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook it until browned, breaking up the meat with your spoon as you go along (about 8 minutes). Don't drain the fat unless you're not using lean ground beef (then drain a bit but still leave some in).
- Stir in the onion powder, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, bouillon paste, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard.
- Reduce the heat to medium, then stir in the flour.
- Stir in the milk slowly until the flour has dissolved.
- Once it starts to bubble, let it cook until it's thickened up to your liking, stirring occasionally (about 5-10 minutes).
- Season as needed with salt & pepper and adjust other ingredients to taste if needed. Serve with fresh parsley sprinkled over top if you wish.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Use a beef bouillon cube or two if you don't have the paste (but Better Than Bouillon is easy to find in most grocery stores and delicious for enhancing many recipes).
