Freezer Cooking

Freezer cooking makes cooking so much more enjoyable and rewarding for me. I would encourage you to start. If you make a recipe that is "freezer worthy", just make double, or triple or more. It takes virtually no more time and you have two or three fresh, homemade meals ready to go. Taylor and I get together for a cooking marathon day and make 20 or more meals at a time for our families. Check out a book from the library or read online because there are some tricks to keep in mind to make it successful. This is so nice because you can have supper ready in minutes on a busy day, or to serve to unexpected company, or to take to a friend in need. I have loved having meals on hand to take to two cousins just recently who have had babies. Sunday night, my brother was over and got a phone call from a friend saying they were coming through Utah from South Dakota and wanted to stop in to visit. My brother, being a bachelor, doesn't have a place to accommodate guests so I said they could come here. I pulled some chili from the freezer and served 6 hungry guys homemade chili and cornbread with two hours notice, and not being able to go to the store (it was Sunday). This is a rewarding feeling for me. Look into freezer cooking and reap the rewards yourself. (Cheesy salesman pitch I know, but I'm serious. I know Taylor is addicted too and gets a natural high from it too.)
