A Great Tip for Quick and Easy Meal Prep

To make cooking quick and easy, I apply a bit of pre-planning. When I buy meat I buy enough for several meals and freeze it right when I get home from the store. With ground beef, for instance, instead of freezing one big ball of meat, I portion it out (even if I don't know what I'll be using it for).

To save even more time later, I squish the meat flat before putting it into the freezer bags. This way they thaw more quickly!
