After is browned I have a plate with several layers of paper towels and pour the cooked meet on it to drain. After the meat has cooled for 5 minutes or so I take a few more paper towels and make sure to soak up any grease I can. I then put the browned meat in labeled freezer bags (hamburger and the date) then freeze! It's great for Hamburger Helper... spaghetti... BBQ... tacos and more! Just un-thaw the hamburger for a few minutes in the microwave. It saves me tons of time in clean up as I only have a greasy mess once every 4 months. Huggies!

I feel that as moms we need to encourage each other to be well-rounded...all the crafting and decorating is great fun, but how important to encourage each other in other domestic endeavors! I've also found freezer meals to be a fabulous way to bless friends and family members in need of a meal.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02505647706744189911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4910615295749614350.post-28839350357412203432010-06-12T10:13:58.610-05:002010-06-12T10:13:58.610-05:00I agree that freezing meals is very important if y...I agree that freezing meals is very important if you're busy.
