Slow Cooker Mongolian Beef (Freezer Meal)

Delicious Slow Cooker Mongolian Beef

This Mongolian Beef recipe is a perfect one to freeze and then throw in the crock-pot another day. So convenient and the taste is amazing! You will definitely want seconds. It is a beef freezer meal that the whole family can enjoy!

With freezer meals, it is easy and time efficient to make more than one meal at a time. If possible, double the recipe or more. Serve Mongolian Beef for dinner that day and prepare the rest for the freezer!

How to Store Your Mongolian Beef Freezer Meal:

1. Combine the ingredients for the sauce and put it in a Ziploc bag, quart size.
2. Add the cornstarch-coated raw steak pieces to a separate freezer bag, gallon size.
3. Remove excess air from bags, seal, and freeze.

Oh, don’t forget to label the bags and keep them together so you know what they are. You can then thaw it all later and cook it in your slow cooker! So easy.
