I survived my big cooking day last week! Having so many yummy meals in the freezer should make meal planning a snap!
A freezer full of food is like having money in the bank. But just like our savings account, I don't want to use all the food right away if we can help it!
I'm spreading it out and planning to use frozen meals about 3-4 times a week. Some weeks, I may use more or less depending on our schedule. This is a rather hectic time for us(as for many folks) which is why I chose to do the big freezer day and the meals are really going to help me out!
I'm planning to do a baking day tomorrow which will stock our freezer with bread, pizza crusts and a few other baked goods. I hadn't done much bread baking in the past few months because I was waiting for my grain order to arrive, but now that I have plenty of grain on hand, I'm ready to do some baking again! This won't be a huge baking production; just some baked goods to keep us going for a few weeks.
Here's what we're eating for supper this week. All frozen meals are marked with **.
Monday- Cheesy Beef and Rice Casserole**, green beans
Tuesday- Pinto Beans**, cornbread
Wednesday-Fish and Veggie Packets**, homemade bread
Thursday- Baked Potatoes (with cooked ground beef, cheese, sour cream), steamed carrots
Friday- Chicken Fajitas**, Spanish Rice
