Bacon Cheeseburger Pasta (Freezer Meal)
From: Stephanie Parker @ www.plainchicken.com/
We were huge fans of this Bacon Cheeseburger Pasta. It had so much flavor and really filled us up. As with the Garlic Parmesan Pizza Pasta, you don't precook the hamburger meat before adding it to the freezer bag. It cooks all day in the slow cooker. It sounds crazy, but it works! I used some precooked bacon for this freezer meal. I always have some in the freezer and it saves a ton of time. The pasta is added when you get home and takes about 15 minutes to cook. We served this with a salad for a super quick dinner.
serves 8
Ingredients:
1 lb lean ground beef, uncooked
6 strips bacon, cooked and chopped
1Tbsp dried minced onion flakes
1 Tbsp dry mustard
1 (10.75-oz) can cream of chicken soup
1 (10-oz) can Rotel tomatoes
3 cups beef broth
8oz cheddar cheese, shredded
16 oz elbow macaroni, uncooked
1 gallon sized freezer bag
Directions:
Place ground beef, bacon, onions, mustard, soup, Rotel, beef broth and cheese in a gallon size ziplock freezer bag.
Freeze.
When ready to cook:
Place contents of gallon sized freezer bag into slow cooker.
Cook on LOW for 6 hours.
Break up meat with spatula.
Add uncooked pasta.
Cook for 15-20 minutes longer, until pasta is cooked.
