How I Used 10lbs of Ground Beef to Plan Dinners for the Entire Year | My Yearly Big Batch Meal Prep
10 lbs of ground beef. 12 freezer meals. One dinner a month handled for an entire year! Grab the ebook here: https://shop.fortheloveofleftovers.co... That's the idea behind my big batch meal prep method! It's not 365 days of meals from one cook session but it's about making enough of ONE recipe in bulk so that one night a month, you already know what's for dinner. No thinking, no stress, just pull it from the freezer and go. Your future self will thank you! In this video, I'm batch cooking a stuffed pepper casserole using 10 lbs of ground beef and we ended up with 12 full 8x8 pans. Pop one in on the 15th of every month, or every busy Monday, or every Sunday you just don't want to cook and you've got an entire year of that meal already planned and ready. I'm also sharing my unique perspective on why and how as a large family, I choose to make 8x8 casseroles instead of a 9x13. There's a method and theory here for families with different needs. ✅ What you'll learn: My "year's worth of one recipe" bulk meal planning strategy How to pivot on the fly when ingredients don't go as planned Why repetitive batch cooking is a game-changer for ADHD brains How to vacuum seal & store freezer casseroles to prevent freezer burn Full cost breakdown — $87 for 12 meals = just $1.81/serving! ✨ Grocery Haul Playlist: • Grocery Hauls for Large Families | Costco,... ✨ Home Organization: • Home Organization ✨ Meal Planning & Recipes • Meal Planning for Large Families | Tips, M... ✨ Low-Income Living Tips: • Low-Income Budget Meals & Poverty Line Liv... 🥙 Favorite Food Storage Items on Amazon Small Item Organization: https://amzn.to/40jtPjo Stackable Bins with Drawers: https://amzn.to/4alFeDU 3 Tier Wire Can Caddy: https://amzn.to/3E9XBPW Pantry Lazy-Susan: https://amzn.to/40dJyjS Purewell Waterfilter System: https://amzn.to/40ChO9U 📩 Free Pantry & Freezer Recipe Guide | 900+ recipes using 125 common pantry and freezer ingredients! https://katie-chase.kit.com/be6d44dc15 💻 Check Out the Shop to Purchase More Helpful Items https://mealplanningwithleftovers.com... 🛍️ Support our Etsy Shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/ChaseStudio... 🐝 About Me: If we haven't met yet, my name is Katie.
