Beef: Browned and Seasoned Freezer Mix




Source of Recipe


Food Mixes and Do Ahead Meals


List of Ingredients




4 pounds Ground beef
1 1/2 large onion -- chopped
3 cloves garlic -- minced
2 teaspoons Salt
3/4 teaspoon Pepper


Recipe



Cook and stir meat, onions and garlic in Dutch oven until
meat is brown. Drain off fat. Stir in seasonings. Spread meat mixture
in 2 ungreased baking pans, 13x9x2 inches. Freeze 1 hour. (This
partial freezing prevents the meat from freezing together solidly.)
Crumble meat mixture into small pieces; place in heavy plastic bag or
freezer container. Seal securely and label; freeze no longer than 3
months. Use freezer mix in the recipes that call for it.

NOTE: You can use this mix in any recipe for drained, seasoned browned
ground beef. Each 3 1/2 cups lightly packed frozen mix is the
equivalent of 1 pound ground beef, 1/3 cup chopped onion, 1 small clove
garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and dash of pepper. (If mixture is not
frozen, allow 3 cups.)
