Notes

  • Use freshly diced onion, or dried minced onion.
  • Instead of Better than Beef Bouillon, regular beef bouillon cubes can be used.  Use 2 cubes!
  • Substitute 1 can of drained can corn for frozen, or leave it out completely.  Peas are also a great substitute (frozen or canned).
  • If your gravy is too thick, add a bit more water to thin it out. 
  • My kids love ground beef gravy over mashed potatoes; however, it's also tasty over rice or noodles.  If you have leftover ground beef gravy, switch it up for a new meal.
  • Don't have cream of mushroom soup on hand? Try Mom's Version instead.
