I'm sick of the sight of chilli but have some mince to use today.

What can I make?

I’m no help, it’s chilli Grin

Cottage pie or a Thai spicy mince stir fry.

Pasta bake. Dead easy and everyone (in this house) will eat it. Win win.

By pasta bake do you mean doing a pasta & bolognese then baking it?

Lasagne, bolognese, tacos (chilli sorry, but maybe a change from rice), burgers, meatballs.

iamusuallybeingunreasonable · 21/07/2020 11:53

Turn your chilli into nachos or a wedges bowl, sloppy joes, homemade burgers, meatballs, pie base, moussaka, lasagne

Picadillo is very nice (there’s a recipe here: www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2012/07/cuban-picadillo-recipe.html - although I refuse to put raisins in mine, and I mostly make it up as I go along).

Or this Korean style beef bowl (damndelicious.net/2013/07/07/korean-beef-bowl/) is really easy and quick.

Or meatballs are good.

Or you could do really simple burgers.

BrandyandBabycham · 21/07/2020 11:54

Moussaka if it’s lamb mince otherwise you could do a Mexican with a packet of spices mixed in with the mince to fill tacos plus salsa, sour cream, shredded lettuce, sliced tomatoes, guacamole, grated cheese, refried beans. Yum now I really fancy that for tea!

Love a pasta bake! OP, mine is basically pasta, Bolognese sauce, but I might add red pepper, courgette or whatever. Grated cheese on top.

GoodDogBellaBoo · 21/07/2020 12:00

You could make an easy meatloaf or mini meatloaves in a muffin pan, nice with just plain potatoes and gravy.

BadTigerKitty · 21/07/2020 12:01

This Italian style beef which can be done with mince rather than chump steak. Easy to throw together and extremely tasty.

Beef mince kebabs are nice, with a bit of yoghurt. www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/beef_mince_kebabs_02661

pickingdaisies · 21/07/2020 12:03

Or make a cottage pie base, but top it with sliced cooked potato, dot with butter, then bake so you get a nice crispy top.

NavyBerry · 21/07/2020 12:03

Moussaka. Very nice

GoodDogBellaBoo · 21/07/2020 12:08

@ExtremelyBoldSquirrels I will try to make that Korean style beef bowl 🙂

GoodDogBellaBoo · 21/07/2020 12:13

This is the nicest ground beef recipe I’ve tried, it smells wonderful and is just as nice to re-heat the day after. Ground beef & cabbage udon noodles.

Some excellent suggestions. So tonight we are no longer having bolognaise or chilli - yet again. Based on what we have in the house, we are having meatloaf - www.goodtoknow.co.uk/recipes/meatloaf

I shall stock up on some ingredients so I can do some of the other suggestions here. Thank you.

GoodDogBellaBoo · 21/07/2020 12:46

This pasta bolognese bake with crème fraîche is good for using up leftovers in the fridge. Very easy to make and cheap.

GreyGardens88 · 21/07/2020 12:48

I like having it with passata, onions, salt, paprika and baked sweet potato
