Dinner tonight

When you cook for the freezer, generally there is always something on-hand for dinner. All it means is thawing something out and heating or cooking it. Example - I had a meatloaf in my freezer for several months. It was all pre-mixed, but still raw. I put it into a gallon ziplock bag, flattened it out so it was only @ 1/4 inch thick, and froze it that way. I can stack ten of those babies on top of one another and take up very little freezer space. They thaw really quickly that way, too.

So - meatloaf, baked potato and salad tonight - with very little effort on my part, and more time to spend in my garden :-)

Step One

Doing freezer inventory. That means making a list of everything I have in my freezer that qualifies as a meal or part of a meal. Now I just need to get motivated! Ha!

Stay tuned! I have a passion for freezer cooking, and it's about time I started a site...
