My Freezer Plan:
refried beans
The banana bread was delicious and is already almost gone. The baked oatmeal wasn't a huge hit for us but will still definitely get eaten. I feel like I have plenty of breakfast food in the freezer to tide us over for a while once I go back to work. This week I have a few meals on the menu that will give us some food for our freezer. Yay!
I love to see other people's freezer cooking ideas. What's on your freezer plan?
I did some freezer cooking for the first time this month with the new baby on the way and our freezer is packed - I usually just doubled what I was making for supper that night. You have some great breakfast items - how handy in the morning! What pizza dough recipe do you use and how do you freeze it? That's another great idea. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHolly,
ReplyDeleteI have tried a couple different pizza dough recipes but this is the one I've been using most recently: http://www.ourbestbites.com/2008/04/breadsticks-and-pizza-dough/
When I freeze dough I usually just double the dough recipe. I spray the inside of a freezer-safe Ziplock bag with cooking spray (so the dough will not stick to the bag) and place enough dough for 1 pizza in each bag. Then I put the bags into a gallon size freezer bag. When I'm ready to use it, I just put it in the fridge to defrost. It's really easy and I LOVE having it on hand because it takes so long to make pizza dough!
Good job! I found you from LifeAsMom. I didn't do a big freezer cooking day, but I did do a little often throughout my week. You can see my efforts here: http://www.simplifylivelove.com/2011/10/september-freezer-cooking-wrap-up.html
