What a time and money saver this recipe is!! I have been making this for years but just never thought about posting it as a recipe. I hit my local grocery early in the mornings and buy up packages of marked-down ground chuck/round. After cooking & cooling, I use my kitchen scale to weigh out 1 lb. portions and then freeze in freezer bags. These are so handy for soups, chili, casseroles, sauces, pizza etc. A real timesaver for those quick and easy recipes. I wish I had thought to post this one, Dancer, but I'm very glad you did!

I have also been doing this for years. It is really a blessing to have the meat already cooked and ready to "season" for a quick meal. I use it to make taco salad, sloppy joe, loose meat sandwiches, scrambled burgers, chili, and all kinds of homemade hamburger helper type dishes. You can have dinner on the table in less than 20 minutes with some pre-browned ground beef. I am glad you thought to post this as a recipe too.

It was an excellent idea to post this. I do this also with onion and green pepper and freeze in meal size portions in vacuum sealed bags. Such a time saver to pull it out of the freezer, thaw it in the microwave and use it.
