1. Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. 2. Add ground beef and cook 6–8 minutes, breaking it apart as it browns, until fully cooked and no pink remains. Drain excess fat if needed. 3. Stir in chili powder and cook 30–60 seconds to toast the spice slightly. 4. Add drained kidney beans. Stir to combine. 5. Pour in pasta sauce and stir well. Use just enough to coat everything generously while keeping the chili thick. 6. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, then reduce to low. 7. Simmer uncovered 20–30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened. The chili should hold its shape on a spoon rather than run. 8. Taste and adjust chili powder or salt if needed. 9. Serve hot topped with shredded cheddar cheese. 10. Warm regular buns and gluten-free buns separately and serve on the side.

1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a baking dish. 2. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, egg, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and a few tablespoons of ketchup. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overwork the meat. 3. Lay a large sheet of parchment paper on the counter. Spread the meat mixture into an even rectangle about ½ inch thick. 4. Evenly distribute finely chopped onion, green peppers, and shredded cheese over the surface of the meat, leaving a small border around the edges. 5. Starting from one long side, use the parchment paper to help roll the meat tightly into a log, keeping the filling inside. 6. Slice additional onion and spread it evenly across the bottom of the baking dish. 7. Carefully transfer the rolled meatloaf seam-side down onto the bed of onions. 8. Drizzle ketchup evenly over the top. Add any vegetables or cheese that fell out around the loaf. 9. Bake 45–60 minutes until internal temperature reaches 160°F in the center. 10. Remove from oven and let rest 10 minutes before slicing to allow juices to redistribute.

1. Remove the outside round steak from the refrigerator 15–20 minutes before cooking. Pat dry with paper towel and season both sides generously with salt and pepper. 2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat until very hot. Add a light drizzle of oil and allow it to shimmer. 3. Place the steak in the hot skillet and sear 3–4 minutes without moving it, until a deep brown crust forms. 4. Flip and cook an additional 3–4 minutes for medium doneness. Adjust time slightly depending on thickness. Cook until internal temperature reaches 135–140°F for medium. 5. Remove steak from the skillet and let rest 5–10 minutes to allow juices to redistribute. 6. While the steak rests, warm tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for 30–45 seconds per side until soft and pliable. 7. Slice the rested steak thinly against the grain into strips. 8. Assemble tacos with sliced steak, salsa, sour cream, and any additional toppings. Serve immediately while warm.
