Notes
- Substitutions:
- Ground Beef — You can use either 80% lean or 93% lean, however since there is so much fat in the cheese, I usually buy 93%.
- Cream Cheese — You can substitute low fat cream cheese if preferred, but stay away from fat free for this recipe since it doesn’t melt and combine in the same way.
- How to Store: To save the leftovers, divide the ground beef mixture into meal sized portions and store in an airtight container in the
- Once ready to eat, add to fresh, or thawed sub rolls.
