Super Busy:
You can cook the ground beef and onion the night before

Side Note:
-This recipe makes A LOT!!!  It freezes well, so feel free to freeze some and save for another day when you don't want to cook.
-Instead of putting cooked ground beef and above ingredients into pot, put in crock pot and cook on low for 3-4 hours.
