Non-pasta meals that freeze well?!


Question: Non-pasta meals that freeze well!?
I start fall semester next week so my time during the week will be limited!. I would like to get some ideas for meals I can make ahead of time and freeze!. So far I have chicken enchiladas, meatloaf/meatballs, beef stew, lasagna, and tater-tot casserole!. Do any of you have any other recipes for things that I can cook and freeze!? I'd prefer things that don't contain pasta as we're not big pasta eaters!. Thanks!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

Single-serve chicken pot pies make a huge mess but they're a nice treat a few weeks later when you pull one out of the freezer!. Flautas, bean burritos, enchiladas and refried beans freeze and thaw nicely!. How about making home-made pizzas (or just the crusts) and freezing them!?
