What I froze today

It wasn't much, but I managed to score some bars of Cracker Barrel cheese on sale, so in addition to making my famous "big mac & cheese" casserole for dinner last night, I bought extra and froze a meal-sized portion of pre-sliced cheddar so I could thaw it to make another one later.

I also made a pot of spaghetti and meatballs, but I baked and flash froze the extra meatballs I made, I'd say @ a dozen. The next time I make spaghetti, I can drop the frozen meatballs into the simmering sauce and just heat them up. Prep work already done!

I also blanched and froze a plastic grocery bag stuffed full of rainbow chard I had picked up from the CSA - thank goodness I have a food saver!

Soon I'll be freezing quarts of applesauce - I love fall!
