Freezer cooking, Tracy-style

It's time for another round of freezer cooking. I'm off this week so I plan to do a little bit here and there. Here's the ultimate list:

Beef Chimichangas
Mama's Meatballs (already posted on here)
Mexican Casserole (slow cooker)
Lemon Olive Chicken (already posted on here)
Grilled Chicken Breasts (with a few different seasonings)
Chicken Fajitas (Paula Dean recipe)

I learned a few things with my last freezer cooking day.

1. It's worth it for me. Yes, it's exhausting, but in the end, we have multiple homemade meals that save us time during our busy weeknights. Since Alex gets home before me, he can heat everything up and prepare side dishes very easily.
2. Stick with recipes that you know and love. I experimented with some freezer cooking recipes that did not turn out so well. I will do a better job of testing them out in the future.
3. Although I'm not doing any this time, the slow cooker bag idea is fantastic. There's no cooking involved. Just dump all the ingredients for a slow cooker recipe into a freezer bag and thaw when you're ready to cook it.
4. It's super easy to do all that cooking without a toddler underfoot...we'll see how this week goes with Ben home with me! :)
