Nutrition per Serving
Ingredients
- 1 dash pepper
- 1 dash salt
- 1 tsp thyme
- 1/2 tsp rosemary

Instructions
- Heat a large skillet on medium-high heat and add olive oil and onions.
- Add ground beef to the onions and brown the meat.
- Add parsley, thyme and rosemary, then add salt and pepper to taste.
- Stir well until everything is combined and the meat is browned.
