Meatballs / Meatloaf Mixture


Last week a picked up my order of hamburger from Zaycon foods!

I wish I could get fresh (not frozen) beef from my father-in-law but that’s not how they do it where we get the cows processed.  I love Zaycon foods, their meat is just as good as my father-in-laws!

You might think I’m crazy for getting 40lbs of hamburger, that doesn’t come packaged. At times I think I am! I love having easy meals ready to go in my freezer. Sometimes I just don’t want to take the time to thaw, make meatballs then bake them.

For me it is easier to just take one day and mix everything together (bake if needed) and package it for when I need an easy/fast meal!

This is what i made this time

  • 24 lbs of meatballs
  • 8 lbs of meatloaf
  • 8 lbs of hamburger patties

This recipe is so easy and delicious! I often find my kiddos sneaking into the meatballs that are cooling! 

Meat Balls - Meat loaf

I love having easy dinners in the freezer.

When I make these I use Gluten Free Old Fashion oats and put them in a food processor to break the oats into smaller pieces. If you don’t want to use oats, sub 3 cups bread crumbs. 

What do you use meatballs in? Here are a few of my go to meatball dinner ideas.

  1. I was just getting ready to ask whether you had used these meatballs for the slow cooker cranberry meatballs, but then I read to the bottom and saw the answer! My husband has been begging me to make them again ever since you brought them when the baby was born, but I don't like all the preservatives & crap in the store-bought meatballs, so I told myself I just needed to find a good meatball recipe that I can make myself.

    Found it!

    Thanks for sharing!
