What’s Thawing?
Nearly every meal I prepare consists of foods I have doubled and frozen. I thaw items in a plastic shoe box to prevent condensation dripping onto my shelves (I’ve learned from experience). I shop my freezer to see what goodies I can thaw and serve to my family. I write these items down on a seven-day menu plan and post it on my refrigerator as a reminder to thaw my food 24 hours ahead of time. Typically right after dinner, I will glance at my menu plan and put new items into my thawing box. Here’s what I’m thawing this week…
- Chicken, black beans and corn quesadillas (made with convenience chicken)
- Grilled Hamburgers on homemade sandwich thins, tortilla chips, pico de gallo, carrots sticks
- Italian Beef Sandwiches on homemade sub rolls, potato skins
- Chicken Braid (made with convenience chicken and brioche dough (artisan dough)-new post), twice baked potatoes-(new post this week), salad
- Nachos Grande, carrot sticks
- Pizza on Artisan flatbread, salad
- Chicken and spinach enchiladas (made with convenience chicken), frozen veges
