ideas for mass production!

speedymagee · 11-07-2010, 08:09 AM

I am looking for LC main dishes that I can make and freeze.

Ideally I would like to cook once and eat 3(or more times).

What are your faves?

Thank-you!

Eggplant or zucchini lasagna, cauli crust pizza, meatballs or meatloaf, pulled pork, roasted chicken, cheesecake muffins.

Do you need to freeze? When I make something, we eat it two-three times each in the next few days. Neither my husband nor I mind having something a couple of times when it's good! It's a lot more convenient when you can just reheat some and not bother with the freezing and thawing. I think the quality is better as well.

Soup-especially beefy vegetables or chicken vegetables. I could eat every day.

I like this way too, but would love to have enough to freeze a bit too.

Well I made a double batch of zuccini lasagna yesterday. Enough for 8-10 meals!!

Still looking at various recipes. I am roasting a chicken today and love Linda Sue's Chicken Pot Pie...but it is not recommended for freezing.

If I sub coconut milk for cream would that work?
