The second day of my freezer cooking was long and tiring. It was on Thursday. I needed a few days to recover before I wrote anything about it. As we have sat down to eat dinner for 2 nights in a row, I have found myself very thankful for all the hard work of preparation. It has made my time in the kitchen faster and smoother. Here is a run down of what all I accomplished:
- Cooked an entire package (5lbs) of ground beef and sealed it in my food saver bags.
- Made an entire package (5lbs) of ground beef into meatballs and sealed it in my food saver bags.
- Made an entire package (5lbs) of ground beef into hamburger patties, quick froze them on a cookie sheet in the freezer, and sealed them in my food saver bags.
- Made an entire package (5lbs) of ground beef into 3 large meatloafs, quick froze them, and sealed them in my food saver bags.
- Cooked and shredded 2 large packages of chicken quarters (10 total).
- Cooked a beef roast with barbeque sauce and froze it.
- Cooked beef stew meat with a red wine and mushroom sauce and froze it.
- Made 7 packages of muffin/quick bread mixes.
- Made barbeque sauce and canned it.
- Cooked great northern beans, made white chicken chili and froze it.
- Put together a chinese salad (veggies chopped yesterday) for dinner.
- Cleaned as I went today, making the job so much easier.

thank for commenting on my blog Debbie! I am so glad you enjoyed it. Celee is just wonderful, huh? anyhow, the four loaf pan was a gift given to me and it is made by pampered chef. I can't wait to read this stuff on freezer cooking!
OOH, you are amazing! Would you be interested in sharing your white chili recipe? I need to avoid tomatoes, so this would be a great alternative.
I will post recipes soon. The chicken chili is very easy. I just cook great northern beans in chicken broth, add green chilies, spices to your liking, and monterey jack cheese. Soooo easy and yet one of my favorite!
