Feeding yourself or a family on any particular diet is always a juggle. The paleo diet is great for your health, but all that protein can be expensive. Ground beef is a great option if you’re looking to create paleo-friendly meals for your family without breaking the bank.
Paleo ground beef recipes don’t have to be just boring plain hamburgers and meatballs. We’ve collected 21 delicious recipes for ground beef that are paleo-friendly, and so delicious that you’ll want to cook them for all your friends too!
Grain-free enchiladas
Ancestral Nutrition has your comfort eating, midweek dinner sorted with this grain-free recipe for enchiladas. Depending on whether your thoughts on cheese match hers, you can add some in or use her completely paleo version of the recipe. Either, way it’s yummy!
Beef stroganoff
If creamy is more your style, then this ground beef stroganoff from Hot Pan Kitchen will tick your boxes. You can use coconut cream instead of sour cream if you’re looking for something dairy-free, but either way, it is proper comfort food!
Mongolian beef
Recreating this dish with ground beef instead of sliced flank steak means that Unbound Wellness’s version is much more cost-effective but just as delicious. This Paleo-friendly dish is easy to prepare as well as easy on your wallet.
Easy taco casserole
If you’re looking for something you can throw in the oven and then pop on the table, then this taco casserole from Whole Kitchen Sink is a great paleo option. It’s full of nutritious vegetables and lean protein, and it can be loaded with your favorite toppings to add even more flavor.
Shepherd’s pie
As well as keeping your supper paleo-friendly, this shepherd’s pie from Paleo Running Momma will be your kid’s new favorite. The recipe is also dairy-free but still topped with super creamy mash.
Korean ground beef
This Mom’s Menu has such a tasty recipe for Korean beef that you’ll be hard-pushed to remember it’s healthy! Not only that, but it only takes 15 minutes to get it to the table. Perfect for feeding your hungry brood!
Ground beef taco bowls with cauliflower rice
Have you ever seen such a vibrant bowl of flavor? This paleo taco bowl from The Healthy Consultant is full of so many awesome nutrients, and just looking at it will make you feel healthier! It tastes pretty good too!
Paleo meatloaf
Who doesn’t love sitting down in front of a plate of comforting meatloaf? Well, The Real Simple Good Life has given this traditional supper a healthy paleo twist. You can serve it up for your gluten-free and keto friends, too.
Loaded cauliflower ground beef casserole
Not just for covering in cheese anymore, cauliflower is the most versatile ingredient. Paleo Grubs uses it as a contrast to the savory ground beef in their casserole recipe. Crispy bacon crumbles are the perfect finishing touch.
Sweet potato lasagne
Lasagne is a great dish to meal prep at the weekend and have ready to go for a busy weeknight. This sweet potato version from Heal Me Delicious is a great paleo option for the whole family to tuck into.
Paleo breakfast bake
Bacon and eggs for breakfast? How boring! Why not break out this crowd-pleaser of a paleo creation from Paleo Running Momma? Her Paleo breakfast bake is such a delicious way to start the day.
Gnocchi bolognese with spinach
With only 5 ingredients, this delicious cauliflower gnocchi is the epitome of easy dinners. If you’re missing your pasta, then Mary’s Whole Life has created just the supper for you.
Pakistani Kima
For a Friday night dinner, this ground beef curry is the paleo jackpot! Your whole family will want to get stuck in, and it’s really easy to make. Whole New Mom lays out all the instructions on her site.
Caribbean-inspired beef soup
For a different cultural flavor, this Caribbean soup from Heal Me Delicious is creamy, filling, and super-nutritious. It’s full of vegetables and lean protein, with coconut milk to make it silky smooth.
Sloppy Joes
If you want something bursting with interesting flavors that you can have with your paleo sides, then you need to try Real Food With Jessica’s sloppy Joes. They’re a great way to make ground beef interesting, even if you’ve eaten it 4 times this week!
Beef taco soup
This hearty soup from Every Last Bite is a great 30 minute meal that you can get on the table quickly and then freeze the rest for and even quicker supper another day. It’s got great Mexican flavors, and you can load it with all of your favorite toppings.
Bacon cheeseburger casserole
For a cheese-free casserole option that’s paleo-friendly, my favorite is Paleo Running Momma’s bacon cheeseburger recipe. It’s full of hearty veggies, ground beef, and a creamy sauce, and it’s topped with crispy bacon, which is always a good idea!
Garlic rosemary meatballs
Meatballs are a great way of using up leftover ground beef, but sometimes they can be a bit boring. Wonky Wonderful’s herby meatball recipe is much more interesting, and you can add tomato sauces or vegetables to make a healthy main course.
Ground beef with Worcestershire sauce
Another option for when you need to meal prep, this tasty recipe from I Heart Umami can be bulk cooked in advance and kept in the freezer. It’s ready for you to whip out when you know you’re going to have a busy evening.
Beef and plantain bowls
I am a bit partial to plantains. I love the sweet taste and the fact that the starch is good for my digestion. This ground beef and plantain bowl from The Real Simple Good Life is gorgeous, and the green sauce is so delicious I might just eat it on its own.
Stir fry with ginger and garlic sauce
When I’ve got about 10 minutes to make dinner and I’m struggling for inspiration I turn to stir-fries. This ground beef stir fry from The Endless Meal is a great option if you’re staring at the fridge and you need food really quickly. The tasty garlic and ginger sauce is definitely one I’ll be using again.
