DINNER IN A BAG

Dinner in a Bag image

I got this out of a quick cooking magazine, but I want to modify it for OMAC. The original was to mix spices and store them with the elbow noodles and a can of tomatoes, to add to browned hamburger later. I want to make a whole bunch of it and freeze it for later. I'll write a review after I've done it so we'll know if it worked or notgrin I'll also add a prep time.

I just love this recipe. It so versatile! Since each person gets their own bag they can have their own vegetables. My friend likes mushroom, but I don't. We each get what we want.
