Buying Beef At A Discount

If you want to keep the meal budget-friendly, you can check out the ground beef sales at Fresh Market or your local grocery store. I usually go each Tuesday and get the beef on sale.

We love the beef at Fresh Market, and it’s usually a great price. We will get several pounds and freeze it to use at other times during the week.

If you can get the beef at a discount and cook it up and then freeze it, it makes life a lot easier. Then, you can pull it out and add it to the Crock Pot when you’re ready.

      Yes! You can freeze the soup. You can find some containers that are freezer-safe and use those so you only have to get out one at a time. Enjoy!

    Can you add elbow noodles?

    1. Julie Pollitt says:

      You can! I would cook them in a separate pot and add them in, or add them the last hour it’s cooking in the Crock Pot. Enjoy!
