With the new school year starting soon it's a great time to get a meal plan in place before the hectic first week of school starts.
Stocking the freezer with ready made meals can take the stress out of dinner time.

Ground Beef Freezer Meals

Ground beef freezer meals are very economical. Buying ground beef in bulk then stocking the freezer with ready made freezer meals will help you get dinner on the table during the hectic school year.

Dinner time can really be stressful if you don't have a plan in place. When you have a few pre-made meals in the freezer all you need to do is pull one out and let it thaw before cooking. Then you won't be running around an hour before dinner time trying to figure out what you can cook for the family.

    There is only two cups of beef broth plus liquid from tomatoes for this soup - doesn't this make more of a casserole dish than a
    soup? By the time you add the macaroni, I would think that would absorb liquid as well. Do you have any pictures of what the soup looks like in a bowl? Thanks - sounds wonderful and know the family would love this! Just concerned about consistency.
    Hugs, Pippa

      This is a very thick and chunky soup. Sorry I don't have any pictures but they are coming soon. The pasta doesn't absorb that much liquid. If you like a more liquidy soup you could add another cup or two of broth. But save that till the end so you only make a small adjustment. After you add more liquid you will need to adjust the seasonings because the added broth will dilute the flavors of the seasonings.Enjoy!
