I was on pintrest the other day and saw
a link for freezer meals. You prepare the meals beforehand and put
them in the freezer Then when you are ready to eat them you pull them
out and stick them in the crock-pot. It sounds like a great idea for
when the baby comes. I went shopping today and decided to try it out
for the next week or so. If the meals are good then I will make
another big batch in a month or so. That way when the baby comes I
will have a freezer stocked with meals. I made a crazy shopping list
with meats and veggies. I had seen in the Albertson's add that
chicken was on sale for $1.67/lb and when I got to the store pork was
that price too! I have never seen pork for that price and yes, I
bought a ton of pork. I spent about $17.00 on meat and I have enough
for 12 meals. Smokin' deal! Here are the meals I made.
Chicken Alfredo
Cream of Mushroom Chicken
Tariyaki Chicken
Orange Chicken
BBQ Chicken
Pork Stew (2 meals)
Apple Pork Chops (2 meals)
Pork Roast and Potatoes
I only had a few pork meals planned so I also have 1 ½ pork roasts left for 3 more meals. Preparing the meals took 1 1/2 hours and I have 10 meals completely ready for the crock-pot. The real test will be over the next week or two when I find out how they taste! If they are good then I might do a follow-up post with the recipes.
