Oh, and NO, NO YOU WILL NOT BE BROWNING THE GROUND BEEF FIRST and that's okay. Anyway, without any further ado...
TIPS FOR THIS RECIPE:
Q: Are you sure I don't have to brown the ground beef first.
A: Yes. I am 100% sure. I mean you can if you want, but it is not nessecary.
**Browning your meat only helps to one, develop flavors, and two give you the opportunity to remove any excess fat. I didn't find this recipe lacking in any sort of flavor and because I used a lean ground beef there was not much fat at all. Even after it sat in the fridge all night, there were only a few beads floating at the top. Less than a beef stew or pot roast for sure.**
Q: Do I have to use frozen potatoes, green peppers, and onions?
A: No, you can use fresh and it will not altar the time any. I just like using them when I am pressed for time. No chopping. I also enjoy using the O'Brian potatoes because they have the peppers and onions already in them. Saves on money that way too.
