Easy One-Pan Ground Beef and Green Beans

This one-pan meal is an easy lunch to whip up with just a few simple ingredients.  First, we pan-seared ground beef with butter then tossed in fresh green beans and served with a side of sour cream.  We used fresh beans because they provide more texture and snap.  For a sprinkle of extra flavor, try adding some shredded Parmesan over the top of the dish before serving.

This recipe is great for meal prepping lunches ahead, especially if you make extra servings and divide up into containers.  It also freezes well, just be sure to pack the sour cream separately and don’t try to freeze it.

Yields 2 servings of Easy One-Pan Ground Beef and Green Beans

THE PREPARATION

THE EXECUTION

1. Rinse the green beans and trim the ends off each side.

3. Once the pan is hot, add the ground beef and season with salt and pepper. Cook the beef until it’s browned and almost finished.
