I am super excited for this year’s Fill Your Freezer February Challenge albiet a little late getting started this month due to snow storms here in Indiana!. This year lines up perfectly for me, because baby number 6 is due at the beginning of April! So, I will be specifically focused on freezer cooking on items that will help my life be a little easier when I’m consumed with baby snuggles!
I’m a little sad this year’s Fill Your Freezer February has come to a close! If you want to see all over this year and past years posts, click HERE .
I had a technically glitch with Friday’s post, so I decided to combine these last few days!
(more…)I feel I’ve made a bunch of snacks for Fill Your Freezer February, but I know wants this snow and cold snap breaks my kids will be back to playing outside and enjoying our nature walks. In return that means they’re always hungry!
I got a happy surprise yesterday while making enchiladas for dinner tonight!
I was able to make a few extra enchiladas beyond what was able to fit in my pan; I tucked these extras into a freezer gallon bag, labeled them burritos and added to the freezer!
Today’s freezer friendly oatmeal bar recipe can be eaten as part of breakfast or as a snack!
I had to go searching for the internet for this oatmeal bar recipe, and thank goodness I found it again! I now need to go write it down in my recipe box — if you don’t have one — I encourage you to! There’s nothing like keeping favorite recipes close at hand and share with others when they ask!
(more…)Anyone else eat hot pockets as a kid? Which is better ham and cheese or pepperoni pizza? Well, today I made homemade ham and cheese hot pockets – some to fill the freezer and some for lunch!
The kids enjoyed them and then told me I need to make them more often! I agree they were delicious and healthier and once made, will be easy to take out of the freezer and pop in the oven to reheat.
For the bread dough I use my pizza dough recipe (it really is so versatile!)
This weekend I made another batch of chicken broth to stock up the freezer. Chicken broth/ bone broth is something I continuously make at least once a month, because we go through it so much.
This is another family favorite snack (or dessert) to fill your freezer with! Did you miss yesterday’s freezer snack post?
I’ve been making these for years and years! It is easy to change up flavors by adding things like nuts, cranberries, flavored chocolate chips, etc.
(more…)Today I’m sharing one of my kids favorite snack! You can buy these and then freeze, but taking the time to make them taste so much better!
(more…)I have a super simple addition to the freezer today: ice cream!
But really, we have a birthday boy tomorrow and that means a full family day eating and playing however my 4 year old wants!
