To easily build a freezer full of meals with minimal extra work, follow this easy simply tip I read in a blog somewhere.
Couldn't get the picture to turn :( |
- When you make a recipe that goes in a pan to double it (or triple).
- In your extra pan(s) put a layer of tinfoil down first (with extra to wrap over top). Construct the dish as normal (with out fresh veggies/crunchies etc.).
- Wrap extra tinfoil over the top. Freeze till solid in the baking dish.
- Take out of dish, put in ziptop bag (using a straw to suck out extra air). LABEL the dish with date and what it is and put back in freezer.
- When you're ready to make it, put the casserole back in the original dish, rip off the extra tinfoil (but save in case you need to cover to stop browning) and cook for 1.5 the normal time it would take unfrozen (if it normally takes 1 hour, cook for 1.5 hours). I do keep an eye on it so it doesn't get too brown on top.
- Add any fresh veggies/crunchies you would normally add.
- The best part - if you're careful with the tinfoil when you dish up, no/little cleaning! :D
Yeah, this one either :( |
