You can brown a pound of meat at home either ground beef or turkey and then freeze and take along in cooler. Thaw in microwave if not thaw already.

I usually use the crock pot and let it cook all day, but when my family is at a hotel we need something to cook quick and something comforting.

That is a great meal if you are in a hotel or if you just aren't very good with cooking. I would add more spice if it was me. Looks simple to do. Like that. Sometimes I'm not in the mood to do a big pot of stuff.
