I love Sams. We got a big container of ground beef for a little over 15 dollars for a little over 4 and 1/2 lbs. (We always get the leanest meat we can so it is a little more pricey). We also picked up a big package (over 6 lbs) of boneless, skinless chicken breasts for almost 11 dollars (about 1.77 a lb).
The ground beef was divided into two sections. So I took one section of the ground beef (2.25 give or take lbs) and browned, while we took the other section to make meatloaves. The browned ground beef made 3 big gallon bags of chili and 3 big bags of sauce (for spaghetti, ziti, etc). I also kept some out to make a tray of lasagna or ziti to go in the freezer.
The chicken breasts are HUGE. When we get them and just freeze them we do only one breast per bag because it will feed both of us. So we always butterfly the breast and sometimes cut them in half in addition to the butterfly.
With the chicken, we did-BBQ dump chicken (1 bag) and Chicken Teriyaki (2 bags-which includes vegetables). Both of these meals can be put in the crockpot.
So How Many Meals Did I put in the freezer (but that is not all...wait for part 2)
- BBQ chicken
- Chicken Teriyaki

Now onto round two! Still using the same packages (sauce, and baked chicken to finish out this round).
