Directions
All Purpose Ground Meat Mix, One of the easiest ways to save money on your family’s grocery bill is by purchasing foods in bulk when they go on sale When ground meat goes on sale, rather than just stocking up to store in the freezer as is, many cooks find it helpful to prepare meat mixes for using later in their favorite family recipes By preparing this recipe for All-Purpose Ground Meat Mix, you’ll be ready to fix any number of tasty ground meat recipes without needing to brown the meat, onions and spices each time you cook Not only will this technique save you money, it saves time too The following recipe is from the book Frozen Assets: How to Cook for a Day and Eat for a Month , A genius idea to sneak a little more vegetables into dinner! I should have used a bigger pan Added everything but the salt, then put into individual 1 lb bags for later Thank you for this great recipe!, It is wonderful to whip this out of the freezer and add it to spagetti, chili, pizza so versatile and tasty Thank you so much for posting!
