Some of my faves...


There are lots of great websites for freezer cooking (or "once a month cooking") but I find lots of great recipes on regular cooking websites too.

From Kraft Canada:

I get two meals out of the above two recipes. I prepare them in the square glass baking dishes that you can get at dollarama. I used to use the foil dishes but started to feel bad about all the waste (especially with all the little baggies I use). These are inexpensive, work great, and clean easily. Once the food is prepared and cooled, I cover this dish in foil and put the whole thing into a freezer bag (which I am able to reuse as well).

Because I am cutting down on the size of the serving of the main meal I serve these two with a big salad. Every grocery day I buy one of the big containers of mixed greens. We eat some almost every dinner.

These are the most amazing veggie burgers ever!! I love them because they are delicious, healthy, inexpensive and really filling. The recipe says it makes 6 burgers but I make 8. I form the patties and stack them with wax paper in between. I freeze 4 burgers in a zipper sandwich bag.
