Just spent the morning doing what I call "Head Start" cooking. Browned up 5# of hamburger and a bunch of chicken breast to freeze for slowcooker recipes and put a big batch of beans to soak so they can slow cook overnight and be frozen tomorrow. Tomorrow I will have a muffin baking spree (Cheddar jalapeno corn, tarrago...n bacon and some sweet ones for breakfast.) and cook up a bunch of rice to freeze.

P.S. 2 cups cooked hamburger is equal to 1# raw.
