Minced ground beef is one of my go-to choices for comfort food, so it is a natural for me. Ground beef pairs very well with beef as well.
You can choose to serve this as your main course, or perhaps you’d like to spoon it up as a side dish. Either way, it captures the spirit of New Orleans and makes a perfect choice for your Mardis Gras or Carnival menu.
