Easy healthy meals that freeze well?!


Question: Easy healthy meals that freeze well!?
I cannot cook very well, and I live by myself so food tends to go bad pretty quick!. I'm looking for fairly healthy meals that are easy to make, (don't have tomatoes - I can't eat them), freeze and reheat well!. It would be nice if I could also take them to work!.

I'd really appreciate help, including details of how to reheat or how to freeze the foods!. Thanks!Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
There are some nice recipes you can freeze and then reheat!. One of the easiest freezing ingredients is rice!. Combining rice with meat and healthful vegetables like broccoli and cabbage should get you started nicely!. As you gain confidence you will be able to create your own variations!.!.

Buy plastic containers one portion containers with tight fitting lids and freeze the food quickly!.

Then defrost either in the microwave for about 20 minutes on the defrost setting or for 20 minutes on the lowest power level!.

You can also defrost overnight in the fridge and then reheat in the oven but of course you must take the food out of the plastic dish and use an oven proof dish!.

If you have any questions about the recipes, you can email me and I will be happy to try to help!.
