You'll soon get a sense as to how much you can put in the bottom of the bag to have the right amount.
Other things I do this way are chopped/sliced onions, peppers, celery. If I have them in the freezer, they're ready and waiting to be added into recipes with less work at the time!
Hope this clears up the mud?
