Freezer Meal Ground Beef Tips

If you looked at the printable Tater Tot Casserole recipe below you saw me mention I used 2 cups of frozen hamburger meat. I love saving myself time in the kitchen. Especially at dinner time.

When I am ready to cook with the frozen ground beef I pop it in the microwave for about 90 seconds to thaw it before I use it in my recipe.

This one little freezer cooking tip can save you so much time when you are cooking a dinner recipe that calls for browned ground beef.
