Meatballs...

I have to say I have wanted to vomit about 100 times since I've been dealing with all this meat. I am NOT a meat girl, I've never baked a turkey and I almost died cooking one of those tiny whole chickens a long time ago. I hate raw meat with a passion, so this goes to show what a labor of love this has been and what I'm willing to do to save money! I found a super yummy meatball reciepe I had to share. yes, this was my first time EVER making meatballs, so I'm really proud of myself!
2 lbs of hamburger
1 box of Stove Top Stuffing
1 cup water
1 package of onion soup mix
2 eggs

Roll into balls, cook at 350 until done. (My Mom bakes hers on a cookie sheet and places a pan/cookie sheet underneath it to catch all the greese. I thought that was a great idea! )

Then, I placed them in a ziplock bag and froze them! Super yummy!

What do you do with 60 pounds of hamburger???

When ever I find a great deal on hamburger, I brown it, put a family size serving in a ziplock bag & freeze it! When I'm making tacos for dinner, I take a bag out, put it in the microwave, add a little water & my seasoning and it's ready to go in minutes!I hate spending a lot of time cooking, so this REALLY helps cut down my time in the kitchen.

Feb 2nd deals... 50 pounds of hamburger...

Here's the 50 pounds of hamburger! ( 10 packs of the 5 pounders. I left them in the bag because I didn't want the bloody mess on my counter. Oh gross.))Oh I can't wait to brown it all! (Yuck. Gag.
