Mexican Meat

This is from my mom. We buy lots of ground chuck when it goes on sale, cook it up like this then freeze it in sandwich baggies (1/2-1lb) for a quick, easy meal. Defrost and sprinkle on nachos with black beans and peppers, put in quesadillas with black beans and peppers (or refried beans, if that's your thing), or eat in tacos. I've put dried pantry ingredients below, you can, of course, substitute fresh.

Mexican Meat

In a large pan, per 1lb of ground beef, add:
2T onion flakes
1t salt
1t chili powder
1/2t cornstarch
1/2t crushed red pepper
1/2t cumin
1/4t oregano
1/8t garlic
1/2c water

Brown, mixing well, then drain fat.
