I love recipes that I can teach to my kids. I figure if they have a few good recipes under their belts they will do better when they have to actually start cooking for themselves.

Quick Tip: See a sale on ground beef or other cuts of meat. G ahead and grab an extra package so that you can make this later. You can also add sausage and even crumbled bacon to this recipe.
