Part of menu planning and prepping is not doing the same steps over and over. If you buy a 5lb bag of gr beef, you know you get can get 2 - 4 meals with leftovers from it. It's no secret we love our leftovers... and the instapot. Leftovers are for Lunches
Batch of ground beef:
5 lbs ground beef
1 C water
1 TBSP garlic powder
1 tsp pepper
1 TBSP onion powder (opt)
Instapot for 12 mins, let off steam
Pour off excess liquid
Click off and then Saute
Stir/break up using mashed potato masher until batch is cooked through
Divvy up into bags or containers in fridge or freezer for tacos, shepherd's pie, sloppy joes, pasta sauce, chili, stuffed pepper soup....
Mashed potatoes
4-6 potatoes
