Ground Beef Mix

This is the recipe Mom uses from her "Make a Mix" Cookbook.  I do this every time I buy ground beef.  The recipe is for 4 lbs of ground beef, but I usually do it with my 5 lb-ish portion from Sam's.

4 lbs beef
1 lg onion chopped (3 T minced onion)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp garlic powder

Brown your ground beef and add all spices.  (I usually add them once I've dumped the grease a time or two).

Store the ground beef by the pound in quart-size freezer bags.

**When I use this ground beef for a recipe, I just pop in in the microwave and cook it for about 2 minutes to defrost, then use it for whatever recipe calls for pre-cooked beef.
