The Sriracha Cauliflower Chickpea sheet pan is sooo yummy! I made one for now and 2 for later! The only request was for more of everything and more cauliflower! I’m going to buy the frozen cauliflower huge bag and make this! Chickpeas we’re so good too! I think you could add other veggies like red pepper as well. Day of you could use any veg you needed to use up! This meal is making me get labels so I can print them from the club. I don’t want to write that many bags 😅

Mum used to make a rice bake when she was struggling money wise. White rice, milk, egg if you have one, grated cheese, tomatoes and bacon or ham pieces. All mixed and baked in the oven, it was delicious! Sadly I can’t eat it anymore due to dairy allergy 😢

We use chicken mince for the chicken fried rice, and substitute some of the chicken with scrambled egg (we have chooks) and diced tofu. We do use less rice and more veg, though. I had surgery last week so we are so grateful for freezer meals right now!

Freezer meals are so helpful after something like a surgery. The best part about fried rice is that you can make it many different ways, making it versatile. Thanks for watching!

Hi guys. I'm a member of your club and it's fantastic! I have a question - you say to get all the air out of the bags, but what about the single serve containers? They have lids, but wouldn't you get a lot of freezer burn? Hope you can help.
@FreezerMeals101
Жыл бұрын
So what we do for our individual freezer meals (something we learned through trial and error!) is that we lay plastic wrap directly on top of the food before adding the lid. That takes the air issue out and helps them last longer in the freezer. Just be sure to remove the plastic wrap before heating!

Christie, I always LOVE seeing this apron!! I bought the Frugal Fall Freezer Meal Kit...YAAY!!! I'm also a club member and I have been searching for the Red Lentil Dal recipe in the club and can't find it. Is it called something else? I searched Vegan, vegitarian, red lentil, dal everything I could think of and didn't see it 🤣 can you help point me in the right direction please? Thank you! Another fabulous video ladies!!

It's not in the club yet! Once our recipes have been tested and approved, they get sent to our food photographer. Once we get the pictures back, THEN it can go in the Club and eventually it ends up on the main website. But in the mean time... here you go! Red Lentil Dal 1 Tbsp. olive oil 1 onion, chopped 2 cloves garlic, minced 2 tsp. Ginger, minced 1 tsp. Curry powder 1 tsp. Ground cumin 1 tsp. Ground coriander ½ tsp. Garam masala ½ tsp. Turmeric ½ tsp. Salt 3 cups vegetable broth 1 ½ cups red lentils 14 oz. diced tomatoes Heat oil over medium heat. Cook the onion 5-7 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger. Cook for 1 minute, stirring. Add the spices. Stir and cook for a minute or two. Add 1 cup of broth and mix before adding the rest of the broth, lentils and diced tomatoes. Simmer, covered for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Let cool. Place in large freezer meal bag, remove excess air. Seal & freeze. Thaw. Reheat on stovetop.

This recipe calls for 1/2 a can of chicken soup and 1/2 a can of mushroom soup so we always double it because we don't want to waste the extra soup!

I'd love a video of meals that only need ~2 hours in the crockpot. I don't like to leave it all day, but would love to come home from work, dump it in the crockpot, take the kids to the gym or soccer practice, and come home and have it ready!

I find that everyone's slow cooker is different. I often do chicken in the crock pot for 2-3 hours on low. Even on low, my crock pot runs pretty hot. Meals like meatballs, that are pre-cooked or par-cooked, chili, soup, etc. would be your best bet, but again, it depends on your slow cooker. I hate it when chicken and pork chops get overcooked, so I usually just use the oven. But if I have to use the slow cooker, I just check it with my meat thermometer and when it's cooked, I pull it out. Maybe an Instant Pot would be more suitable... I don't know. I hope these tips help you in case we don't ever get to a video where it's dedicated to short cooks in the crock pot! Thanks for watching!

Beans are such an easy and cheap protein, of course they get used a lot. But you're right. If you work at it, you can make a wide variety of frugal meals without beans. I'm sure we'll do more frugal-type videos in the future. Challenge accepted!

You can use reusable silicone bags or reusable containers if your prefer. Freezer cooking actually uses less packaging because of being able to buy in bulk and not having to buy convenience foods.
