So tonight had the mince with corn chips and salad (nachos). Also used some on puff pastry with cheese and capsicum to make savoury rolls for the girls for lunch tomorrow at school.

The rest went into the freezer.

And with the rest of the mince made meatballs.

chopped garlic and onion and bread.

Added mince, worcester sauce and tomato sauce and mixed.

Made into balls.

We will have one lot of these tomorrow night, the second lot went into the freezer.

So loads of easy meals in the freezer ready for busy nights.

Amazing how far you can make $14 worth of mince go!!!!
