Cook It Up

Okay, I don't know if I'm really worthy to give cooking advice, but this is something that helps me in the kitchen. When I'm making dinner I usually don't have a lot of time, so I try to make it as quick as possible. We don't really eat a lot of beef, but every now and then I have to cook up hamburger for a meal. I HATE cooking it so what I do is make it ahead of time. I like to buy extra lean ground beef from Costco, it's usually around 6 lbs and about $15-16. I cook it all at once, and season it and everything. Then I freeze it in quart-size zip locks for future use. It's really nice when I need to make a quick meal like tacos, burritos, or spaghetti. I can just grab it out of the freezer and its ready to go!


It's kind of a pain to do, it usually takes me about 45min to an hour to cook it all up. The house smells...you smell...etc. But for me its worth it because you do it once and you are set! I learned this from my beautiful mom-Thanks Mom!

Lindsay,
good idea about the hamburger! Buy in bulk.... Anywayz our house is awesome(if I do say so myself) Its about 2600 square feet, 4 bed plus an office, every upgrade you can think of. Its tuscan style with a big courtyard in front. Its out in wash. fields. anyway, we have renters in it until october that is the only thing. But its really pretty! Let me know if you want to know anything else.
