Ingredients
- 8 oz. ground beef (80/20)

Instructions
- In a skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat. Do not drain.
- If using, add the mushrooms, and cook, stirring often, until they are softened and slightly browned.
- Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until the flour is no longer raw, approximately 2-3 minutes.
