Karen had a great idea on making meals easier . I do something similar with bacon. When the grocery store runs a good sale on bacon, I buy the biggest package I can get. Then I freeze and date them in freezer bags with 2 slices in each. That way, when I want to cook green beans, spinach, hominy, ect… I just drop in a couple of peices of frozen bacon. Yumm! Very tasty and I never have to worry if the bacon has gone bad and I get it on sale.
