Save time and money by doubling your recipes, and putting half in the freezer for later use. Example: Meat loaf. Cook one for dinner that night, save the other one in the freezer for later. You can do this with many recipes. This may save you money on food by buying in bulk and getting a better per unit price), and in time by clean up being done only once and the prep work being done only once. Once you get this down you may venture into once a month cooking (oamc).
I do this all the time and have found that it works really well for me. I have MS and the fatigue and quirks of the disease sometimes prevent me from preparing a good meal for my family. It is easy for my son or husband to pull something out of the freezer and cook it. And it doesn't really take that much more energy to do the cooking on my 'cooking days'. Just thought this might be useful for some people out there.
I do this also. The only difference is that I cook the extra one right along with the first one. Wrap well and freeze. Then you can just thaw and reheat later. Harlean from Arkansas
