I don’t know about you, but my life is so hectic around the holidays. When you realize you don’t have any idea of what to cook for dinner, it is really easy to just order take out or grab unhealthy fast food meals as you rush from one errand to another. Making freezer meals can help you avoid falling into that unhealthy eating pattern.
Freezer meals are meals that have all the prep work done. Everything, from rolls to toppings, is frozen into one big bag or container. People often do the prep work during a once a month cooking session, where they put together a lot of meals at the same time.
For those who live in an urban area, businesses like Let’s Dish or Suddenly Suppers allow people to come into the store and prepare their freezer meals there. The stores have all ingredients and instructions set up at different stations and encourage groups of people to come in together and have a once a month cooking party.
In more rural areas, people just get together to hold their own once a month cooking sessions. If you hold one in the next few days, don’t forget about cookie dough, breakfast bread mixes and that Christmas breakfast egg and hash brown casserole.
