Grab your big ol' iron skillet, just like Grandma used to use. This recipe is part of our Family Skillet Meals that begins on page 57 of the Trim Healthy Mama Cookbook. Pearl Chats: "My family is crazy about this meal. If it’s not on the menu every week or so, they start asking for it... I love this meal not only for the flavor, but for the ease. You don’t even have to chop anything when you use handy, frozen Seasoning Blend. Sweet Creamy Coleslaw (page 230) or Light Lovely Coleslaw (page 230) are the perfect pairings for this meal.

Ingredients
  • 2 lbs ground meat (beef or venison)
