Instructions
Step 1
Prep Label your freezer bag.
Step 2
To your freezer bag, add all ingredients except chicken broth.
Step 3
(If adding beef*, add it to the freezer bag last so it's the first ingredient poured into your slow cooker.)
Step 4
Remove as much air from the freezer bag as possible, seal, and lay flat in your freezer.
Step 5
Cook The night before cooking, move frozen bag to your refrigerator to thaw.
Step 6
The morning of cooking, pour contents of freezer bag into your slow cooker and add chicken broth.
Step 7
Cook on "low" setting for 6-8 hours, or until beef is cooked through and carrots are soft.
Step 8
*Note: Some people prefer browning ground beef prior to freezing because they think it adds more flavor to the dish.
Step 9
I prefer to freeze my ground beef raw because it saves prep time and still tastes great.
