how do you do it? April's post about freezers got me thinking....
For us we make a number of premade meals. Things like mastacholi, chili (both red and white bean) pulled pork, and the mix for stuffed peppers & zucchini to have on hand we'll make a double batch of and freeze the extras. We bag off the extras, date them, lay them flat in the freezer stacked up and let them freeze. Then when we've had one of those days we'll pull them out heat them up and we're eating homemade good meals in minutes.
We also do strawberry short cake topping too when we're picking and making jam. We'll save so many for shortcake and do the same thing. Mash the strawberries, add sugar, mix, portion off, and freeze. That way we have REALLY good strawberries to put with our biscuits.
We also made all our own baby food saving us hundreds of dollars.
Any other ideas?
