My freezer is in need of prepared foods, so I thought my menu plan this week should consist of Freezer Cooking Days. I don’t really have a full day to devote to marathon cooking, so I’ve decided that most of my menu will consist of meals that I can freeze. We’ll eat one for the night I cook it and use one for the freezer. My plan is to add in an extra meal or two on Thursday or Friday. My menu is based around what I have on hand, so I’ll need to do minimal shopping to pull this off.
I’ll post my freezer results (and recipes) on Friday, so stop back by if your interested.
Monday
Chicken, Broccoli and Rice Casserole with salad (freeze 1)
Tuesday
Jambalaya with salad (freeze 1)
Wednesday
Grilled Ratatouille (mixed veggies over pasta, will post recipe)
Thursday
Spaghetti and Meat Balls with salad (freeze 1)
Friday
Meat Loaf with rice and whatever veggie is on sale Wednesday (freeze 1)
Saturday
Dinner with friends
Sunday
Turkey Burgers with baked sweet potato fries
~Extra meal: Brown Bag Burritos OR another burrito plus another meal if time permits.
What a great idea! Cooking once and eating twice! Have a great week.
I love freezer cooking! Great post!
Thanks for the tip. I'll use it when updating Code Coupon Discount

Jackie,
You asked for freezer cooking day back 🙂
It's also beneficial for me to have the food ready to go in the freezer.
