I have an upcoming trip to Dallas in October, so in preparation for my being gone for three weeks, I decided to pre-cook and freeze some of my hubby's fav's. They can just be defrosted in the fridge in the morning, and heated up for dinner in the evening. I spent the entire day in the kitchen, and here are my results:
I freeze meal sized portions in individual Ball Freezer half-Quart Plastic jars. I made 2-3 servings of each meal, so they can be eaten on different nights. They will keep for weeks, heat well in the microwave, and are a healthy alternative to ordering in while I'm away. I know it is appreciated.
I think that is awesome!!! I would totally have to do that for my hubby if I was out of town for awhile as he can't cook. Literally when I met him all he had in his fridge was 1 can of red bull and some margarine. It was SAD. This is perfect.
ReplyDeleteS.V. I'm pretty sure that if I don't do this, I will see a lot of debit card charges for "Papa John's" pizza!
ReplyDeleteLook at you go! I love the idea of this. You have some great things you made!
ReplyDelete@Erin-Thanks..I did this last time I left town, and it was a hit, so I'm betting this will become an ongoing thing.
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas!! Everything on this list sounds so delicious!
ReplyDeleteThanks Stephanie!
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of prepping. But what a lucky guy.
ReplyDeleteI'd be spending an entire WEEK in the kitchen to do that...and when I came home..they'd still all be in the freezer and the debit card charges for Wendy's and Chick Fil A would be NUMEROUS! You guys are both lucky!!
