Basic Make-Ahead Ground Beef

I love the convenience of cooking up a large batch of ground beef in advance and freezing it in 1 pound packages (1 quart size freezer bags),  for quick-meal making later.  This basic recipe is similar to a Pampered Chef  recipe my mother give me.  With a few added ingredients, this basic recipe is great for tacos, spaghetti, sloppy joes, and more!

Ingredients:

6 lbs. 90% lean Ground Beef (or Turkey)
6-12 garlic cloves, pressed
3 medium onions, diced

Cook ground beef with onions and drain off fat.  Add garlic and simmer. 
Use needed portion in dinner recipe and freeze the rest for later.
