Emily Richards, P.H.Ec., shared with Canada Beef her Nonna's (Nana's) veal meatball recipe from her cookbook Per La Famiglia. These moist and tasty meatballs will be a hit with friends and family.

So Simple Big Batch Beef

Cook up and stash a batch of Big Batch Beef in the freezer for lots of speedy So Simple scratch-dinners.

Beef ‘n Cheese Pinwheels

If left unsliced, this recipe makes 4 delicious wraps that are perfect for a light dinner or lunch. Canadian beef paired with cheese makes them so good and so good for you.

Tacos are a great weekend night dinner solution. Prepare the Big Batch Tex-Mex Beef recipe ahead and scoop out the amount of meat you need to make these tacos. This beef mixture is also great lunchtime solution. Pack 1/2 cup of the meat mixture into a microwave safe lunch container. Pack the taco fixings. At lunchtime, heat the beef mixture and assemble with taco fixings.

Speedy Spaghetti Sauce

With Big Batch Beef in the freezer, made-from-scratch meat sauce has never been so quick to make!

Beef Chili Nachos

This simple chili is made easy with just what you have on hand. Make ahead for best flavour and serve straight from the pot or keep warm in a slow cooker as part of a buffet spread.

Big Batch Beef Burritos

The Big Batch Beef Burrito recipe was created by Andrea Buckett and it’s a staple in my house. "As a mom to two active teenage boys it can sometimes be hard to keep up with the amount of food they require. Taking some time to make a batch of these burritos means we have an easy, healthy, grab and go lunch that is delicious and budget friendly. Setting up a burrito assembly line where the boys pitch in is a win win for everyone."
