meat

I buy hamburger in 10lb packages, cook a bag of lentils, smush them down and cool them to mix in the hamburger. I also put in finely diced onions to distract from ever so slightly changed appearance. I used to package individual packages with sandwich bags, or foil sheets hubby brought home from work, but next time I package hamburger, I’m going to use the folded 1 gallon baggie trick.

Chicken quarters have been cheaper than buying whole chickens where I shop, so I’ve been buying those. I’m getting pretty decent at cutting the meat off the quarters for chicken tenders.

I buy rice in 20lb bags, and pinto beans in a larger bag. I keep those in 5 gallon plastic buckets. I recently tried a new brand of frozen veggies, La Huerta, from our local Walmart that are a lot cheaper than the other frozen veggies, and hubby and I enjoy them very much. We both love the spinach, and the corn with peppers. The broccoli is pretty good too, but hubby makes has me steam it longer because he says its tougher than fresh broccoli.
