Meal Preparation Made Easy!

When I come across a good deal on ground beef I buy extra and prepare an All Purpose Meat Mixture for future recipes.

All Purpose Meat Mixture

5 lbs ground meat
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups onion, chopped
1 cup green pepper, diced
½ tsp pepper
1 tsp salt (optional)

In a large pot, brown ground beef. Drain. Stir in garlic, onion, green pepper, salt and pepper; cover and simmer about 10 minutes until vegetables are tender but not soft.
This should make approximately 12 cups. Divide mixture into freezer bags (about 2 cups in each bag), label and freeze for use in future recipes.
