Carrie, I am not a fan a venison, but I like how the recipe calls for multiple meats. Does that tend to help with the flavor?
Denise, let me know if you try it!

Krista, I think the multiple meats really does help with the flavor. I was like you, I didn't like venison either, the only way I had ever had it before I met my husband, it was very gamey tasting and really put me off of wild meats. When I met my husband, he was an avid hunter and I knew I needed to learn to like it... I started with stew.
Our trick with whole venison meat is to soak it in heavily salted water for 3 days, changing the salt water at least 1 time per day. This pulls out the gamey flavor. It also helps that he isn't hunting for that giant old buck.
When I learned to like stew, I started making venison roast, it took me about 5 years to start making the meatballs and also a 3 meat meatloaf (same meats). Recently I started making venison chili and tacos.
I still can't eat venison steaks or chops and really dislike venison sausage and burgers, it's just too dry. If you notice, the majority of what I make with venison are heavily seasoned/flavored meals.

Carrie, you make me laugh. I’m so glad I’m not the only one. I’ll definitely give the multiple meat meatballs a try and see how I can handle them!

I came across another meal over the weekend and gave it a try on Monday. It was delicious! And afterwards I found out it can be used as a freezer meal! I’m super excited! It was called sausage tortellini soup. So yummy.

We made our breakfast burritos last Saturday and ended up with 80 burritos. Half with onions and peppers and half without any peppers for the weirdos in my family who don’t like them lol!

Krista funny you mention breakfast burritos, I was going to suggest that. They heat up fast and there's no mess.

They are super easy for my family. We only have a couple left because everyone likes them so much. I’ll have to make some more again. You only get one big mess at the start and the rest is mess free.

I want to bring this thread back to life! It has been a favorite of mine and I use so many of these recipes. Does anyone have anything new to add?

I like to have breakfast things in the freezer. Make extra pancakes, waffles, or french toast and reheat for later. I use a toaster oven and they taste good and good texture. I like to have pizza kits in the freezer too. Small baggies of pepperroni, sausage already cooked, cheese, and par bake pizza crusts. I had canned sauce in 1/4 pint jars and it works perfect on pizza for 2. I hope to get more freezer meals done up this fall. I watch Acre Homestead on you tube and she does alot of freezer meals.
