Paleo Beef Mince Ragu

A handful of recipes that are great for “meal prep” will serve you well. Cooking in advance for your week ahead is a great way to stay organised and make sure your eating the right foods. This recipe has an awesome flavour, can be made in bulk, and freezes well.
This is definitely one of my Sunday afternoon cook up recipes.
