Thanks for the link to the French Toast Sticks — they ARE awesome! My boys, in particular, love them! Hope other people enjoy them as well.
Your food sounds delicious. Can’t wait to feel good enough to cook!
Thanks 🙂 Hope you feel better soon!
Great list, thanks!
I would love to do this for my family but hate the idea of something getting freezer burnt…how do I avoid that?
Hi Mandi,
That’s a good question!
The most important tip for preventing freezer burn is proper food storage. For soups, put them in a plastic container with some room on top and then put some plastic wrap or foil over the surface of the soup. For casseroles, add plastic wrap, foil or wax paper on top and then cover with lid. For other items, use thick freezer bags (making sure to remove as much air as you can) or vacuum-sealed bags to store food.
Also, never put hot food in the freezer, always let it cool off before you put it in and try to make sure the temperature in the freezer never fluctuates by not leaving it open too long, etc.
Hope this helps,
Stephy
Thank you! Going to give it a try 🙂
Hello! Any tips on cooking the meals before and simply reheating in the microwave?
