Everything you could ever want in bulk cooked meals

Everything you could ever want in bulk cooked meals

For this week's bulk cooking, I take everything anyone could ever want in a bulk cooked meal and combine it all together. I mix beef, chorizo, cheese, and egg noodles together in what may seem like a "too much of a good thing" recipe. Thankfully, the results were glorious and not over-the-top. This recipe is definitely a winner.

Ingredients

  • 5 lb of 90% lean ground beef
  • 2 lb of chorizo
  • 2 lb of egg noodles (the thin-and-short type that looks like straw)
  • 1 can of beef broth
  • 3/4 of a block of solid velveeta (in this case, I used a generic brand) - about 1.5 lbs
  • Some black pepper
  • Some cayenne
  • Some adobo seasoning

Unfortunately, I don't have a picture of the ingredients this time. I will also note that I can't look at adobo seasoning without mentally calling it "adobo reader seasoning" — am I alone here?

Methodology

I'm still injured from the golfing accident, but this recipe wasn't too difficult to pull off with just one hand at full capacity.

Cook the chorizo on a skillet. Meanwhile, start cooking the ground beef in a big pot. Add the seasonings to the beef.

When the meat is relatively cooked, add the can of beef broth, velveeta cheese, and chopped-up chorizo. At this point, the pot will be black and yellow, just like the colors of everyone's favorite city. "Everything I do, I do it big."

Finally, add the noodles. This is a bit difficult because of the low quantity of liquid, so add some more water as necessary. I only added a couple extra cups of water, as I didn't want the resulting mixture to be too liquidy.

Now all that's left is to ration the meal into containers. This made 8 meals.

And that's it. I'm surpised I didn't think about this earlier, because it's basically just combining all the best things together to create something even more amazing. This is anything that anyone could ever want in a week's worth of meals.
