Freezer meals pt. 2
You have decided to do freezer meals, now what? Here is an easy 5 step process to begin with.
Start a Pinterest board just for freezer meals. Choose recipes with no more than 5 meals and easy steps. I have been making freezer meals for over 5 years, and I don’t want to tackle more than 8 meals in one day. I also refuse to cook anything on the stove if it’s going in my slow cooker.
Make sure all your dishes are cleaned before you begin. The cleanup is worst part of the preparation.
Decide how you are going to meal plan; digitally, print it from the website, or write it down. I use a Franklin Covey menu planner or print from the website if it’s provided.
The only thing you need to purchase other than groceries are containers. I prefer the Hefty freezer bags. If you are looking for a plastic free options, Pyrex or reusable freezer bags can be found on amazon. I have not yet tried reusable freezer bags, but they are my next planned purchase when my bags from Costco are finished.. A pitcher is useful for heavy meals. Use a wooden clothespin to keep the bag in place.
Have fun! My favorites are Skinnytaste and The family Freezer. (I’m not an affiliate. They have been my favorite in the last five years. )
