I don't know about you, but I despise chopping onions. It entails two of my least favorite things to do...Crying and cleaning up messes. I detest it so much that I used to just sprinkle a bottle of minced onion when a recipe called for chopped onion. Now we all know nothing taste as good as a fresh chopped onion, especially when browning ground beef. So I now have an easy system.....
Every time I get out my food processor, I chop several onions and put them in a snack baggie measuring approximately 1/2 cup in each baggie. Then I freeze the finely chopped onions. This saves so much time and clean up. Just pop out a bag and let defrost or pop in microwave.
great idea! so simple and easy!
