What meals Can be frozen to eat later?!
We are expecting our second child in 7 weeks, and with him working nights and a 2 year old daughter, I'm kinda nervous about meals!. What meals can be prepared and then frozen, and how long can they be kept frozen!? If any one has a website that would provide the recipes and freeze time and such I would greatly appreciate it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
Stew can be made in a crockpot so it is little fuss and the leftovers can be frozen and reheated later!. It will last for months!.
Meatloaf is also simple!. You can freeze it without cooking it even so you can just thaw it and cook it day of!. Or cook, freeze, and reheat later on!.
Meatballs and marinara sauce are also very good for freezing!. Reheat those and cook some pasta or prepare some bread for meatball subs and you are good to go!.
Lasagna also freezes well and there are so many kinds you can make including veggie, chicken, cheese, beef, Mexican, lasagna made with ravioli, etc!.

I have frozen lasagna, beef stew, chili, chicken casserole, veggies, and many more foods that tasted just fine 2-3 months later!. As long as you seal them up right in a good container (I used the hefty containers and freezer bags) it should all be fine!. Make sure to get all the air out!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Anything italian - lasagna, spaghetti, manicotti, etc!. should keep a couple of months!.
Burritos freeze really well for up to six months - I use beef, beans, cheese and peppers in mine - flour tortillas!.
Soups freeze well!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
