Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean ground beef turkey, or chicken
  • 1 cup chopped onion chopped finely
  • 1 cup chopped celery chopped finely
  • 1 1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1 1/2 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce See allergy-free information in the notes or the original post.

Instructions

  • In a skillet brown ground beef. Drain if necessary.
  • Add back to the skillet with chopped onion, celery, and garlic. Cook a few minutes then add mushrooms.
  • Let cook a couple of minutes and then add all other ingredients.
  • Simmer without a lid for 20-30 minutes. Wow! That was easy!
  • Serve on toasted buns, rolls (gluten-free if needed), or with rice. My son even likes this in a crunchy taco shell.

Notes

Please Note:  Worcestershire sauce ~ Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce is gluten, peanut, soy, tree nut, dairy, shellfish, and egg-free. Annie's Worcestershire Sauce contains soy, cornstarch, and wheat.
 
Leftovers disappear quickly. I like to make a double batch and freeze half for a quick dinner or lunch another time. I hope you enjoy this quick, delicious dish.
