This month I did my freezer cooking a little different. I followed a lot of the recipes from the traditional menu at Once a Month Mom. I also found one recipe from the whole foods menu that sounded awesome. I shopped yesterday (dreading the check-out line the whole time) and was pleasantly surprised when the total wasn’t bad at all!! I chopped lots of veggies last night and cooked some of the chicken last night and had it ready to go for today. Having done that, I still cooked all day. I finally got done with cooking and packaging 9 1/2 hours later! I am pretty sure it wasn’t supposed to take me that long but this is quite an accomplishment for me because I am usually not done that fast and I don’t have nearly as large a yield of food. Everything that my family and I sampled was scrumptious…especially the muffins and the pasta!!!
Here’s the complete list of items making my freezers bulge right now:
- over 5 dozen pumpkin chocolate chip muffins
- over 3 dozen harvest pancakes
- 3 meals of spinach artichoke pasta
- 1 meal of chicken and wild rice soup
- 1 meal of taco soup
- 2 meals of Monterrey chicken
- 4 meals of Mexican chicken lasagna
- 1 meal of seasoned taco meat
- 3, 3 cup containers of chicken broth
- 5 lunch portions of taco soup
- 9 lunch portions of chicken and wild rice soup
- 3 meals worth of salsa chicken
