Okay! I'm seriously considering starting to do monthly or bi-monthly freezer cooking. Right now, we eat a lot of junk food at home and never have real meals - mostly because my husband and I work opposite shifts to avoid having to pay child care for our little girl. It always seems so pointless to make a big mess and cook a big meal for just me.
But, my husband has liver disease and really shouldn't be eating all of these instant meals that are full of sodium and other junk thats hard on his body. Our baby is getting bigger and in the next 3 months or so will start on table food. I just need to start eating healthier, period! So, I figured if I did freezer meals, I could get all of the cooking out of the way and we could each have good tasting, healthy meals with out the hassle.
So what I need is your best freezer meal recipes! I'd like to hear some tried and true recipes. It will be a bonus if they can easily be packaged in single serving portions and if they are something a 1 year old would enjoy! I'd also like to hear how you go about doing your cooking sessions, about how long it takes to cook for 1 months or 2 weeks worth. Also, about how much do you spend on a grocery shopping trip before a cooking session and do you think you are able to save $$ by cooking this way.
Is that too much? LOL! I appreciate it anything!! Thanks so much!!
