I've been cranking out the freezer meals this week and my freezer is almost full. And beautiful. Full and beautiful. I've manage to freeze a months worth of dinners and lunches and a few weeks worth of breakfasts in 1 week. I'm liking this "Once a Month" cooking. It does take a bit of planning and time but the freezer doesn't lie...
I'll break it down for you, but FIRST, check out my new Cuisinart pot!
Yes, it's sexy...I know...and so does the pot. Seductress!
Ok, a few of the freezer meals I've prepared in the last WEEK include the following: Two bags of marinated steak strips, Thai chicken with peanut sauce, lemon-glazed chicken breasts, buttermilk ranch chicken, Tuscan chicken, Italian smothered chicken, Beef Stew, 4 trays of enchiladas (one of which we had for dinner, muahaha), turkey ranch burgers, 2 turkey meatloaf's, 2 dozen turkey meatballs, 2 chicken pot pies, 2 beef pot pies, 1 tray of lasagna, and 4 single servings of lasagna, two homemade frozen pizzas, 6 single serving stuffed cabbage rolls, 2 bags of spaghetti meat sauce, bags of chopped cilantro and green onions, blueberry waffles, 2lbs cooked bacon, 10 breakfast burritos, and 10 chicken burritos.
WHEW! I'm exhausted just WRITING it out! Lord knows how I managed to do all that and chase two small kids around, but I did it. I just did a little every day while the girls napped and after they went to bed. And the easy stuff that I thought June would enjoy, I let her help. She's a great helper in the kitchen.
Ahhhh!!! The tortilla bandit!! Where is my Red Ryder carbine-action, two hundred shot Range Model air rifle with a compass in the stock and a thing which tells time, when I NEED IT? Oh well, I can take her...I think. Oh and by the way, if you got the Red Ryder air rifle reference, then you're awesome.
