This has been an amazing transformation for us. I do my cooking on Sundays and make 6 – 7 meals each Sunday. Usually during the week we also eat a crock pot meal, have a sandwich night or other simple meal, and maybe go out to eat so there are a few extra meals I am building each week. This past Sunday y’all I didn’t have to cook my freezer meals. I just made our supper and that was it. There were enough meals in the freezer to last this week. Simplify. That is the word and that is what freezer cooking has done for me.
I thought I would continue on and give you all the breakdown of my weekly plans. You can see week 1 and 2 by clicking here.
Week 3 — 6 meals total
Sausage Spaghetti Pie (I made 2 of these not 3.)
Taco Meat (I made a batch of taco meat just like I normally do for taco night and froze it for later.)
Week 4 — no cook week!
I was able to not cook and eat what we had in the freezer all week. On Sunday, I grilled steaks and made an extra batch of chili. Otherwise this week, we will be eating what is left from week 1 – 3.
Week 5 — 6 meals total
Pizza Casserole (recipe on week 1 of this post)
Pizza Balls
Steak Sandwiches (I cooked thinly sliced steak with peppers, onions, garlic, and seasoning then freeze in freezer bags. I will add to buns to serve.)
Country Steaks (We will be eating these on Sunday as I am not sure how they will freeze.)
Oh I have been doing this for years. It is so easy to just make two of everything and put one in the freezer. I do that with cookies and dessert breads too. Always something good in a jiffy. Hugs Marty
Thanks for an update-I always wonder how people actually like the meals they freeze.
It free’s up so much time and makes cooking more fun doesn’t it? I’ve been making more “gourmet” style meals a couple of times a month because I don’t cook as often with freezer cooking 🙂
I am so glad you did that sausage hash.. It is one of our family favorite. I sure hope you enjoy it!
