Recipe(tried): Creamed Ground Beef (SOS)

Breakfast and Brunch
This is the current recipe for "SOS" from the Armed Forces Index of Recipes; 2003. The varieties of this recipe will amaze you even between the services. Almost everyone and every mess sergeant adds thier favorite ingredients but this is straight from the mess halls that feed our soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines.

There might be leftovers. If this is a bit much for your troop, divide by 10 and adjust to taste. You can't hardly hurt the recipe. I have added ground sausage to mine (sage). Heck, the Navy puts tomato sauce in theirs.
Use regular milk (any fat level) as you like.

Carry on!

Blessings to all,
