I am participating in a freezer cooking day! I will be joining Money Saving Mom, and Life As Mom, as well as many other bloggers! I'd love to have you join in too!
A freezer cooking day, is just what it sounds like. A day devoted to cooking things that will stock up your freezer! It requires some extra planning to make sure you have your recipes, groceries, and 'to-do' list in order, but it is WELL worth the effort!
I will be doing my cooking on Monday, but plan a day that is convenient for you, and stock yourself up for the month of February! I am aiming to have some quick grab meals, and breads made, to help out with those nights, when I just can't pull something else together. (did I mention that I am working as a part-time teacher at Kelseas Elem. School?)
Here's what I will aim for:
Slow Cooker Chuck Roast-3 meals worth
Ground Turkey (cooked ahead for spaghetti sauce/pizza topping)
Chimichangas- 2 meals worth
Chicken Tettrazini -3 meals worth
Chicken Ziti- 3 meals worth
Marinated Chicken Breasts
Whole Wheat Waffles Doubled
Banana Bread x 2
YES, Brady will still be home; there will be some play-doh, some V-tech, some coloring, some napping, and some helping keeping him busy! Yes, all of the groceries for this day are coming out of our regular grocery budget. Yes, I will post pictures, and update my progress as I go. Hopefully the final picture will be one that I can be proud to share!
Check back to see my progress! I plan on posting a breakdown of what my freezer cooking day will look like on Sunday afternoon!
