Freezer Meal Links
Ok, so here are the links to the latest freezer meals I did. I use them as guidelines for the most part. Generally, you can tweak and do anything to a freezer meal and it turns out pretty good.Also, my rule of thumb for cook time is: if it is thawed 30-45 minutes at 350 degrees, if it is frozen 1-2 hours at 350 degrees. Always take the foil off for the last 10 minutes to brown everything up.
Enchilada Casserole
Taco Pasta
I didn't follow this one exactly. I mixed the noodles with the meat and sauce and covered it in cheese and cilantro.
I just did this one from scratch. Chicken breasts dipped in egg and milk mixture, then rolled in Italian bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Cover them with your favorite red pasta sauce top with mozzarella and Parmesan. Bake and serve over spaghetti.
Lasagna
My variations on this is is I add eggs to my ricotta mixture, because it sets better. I also don't use as much beef, mine is a 1 lb. to 1 lb. ratio of pork and beef. Lastly, I spread my cheese mixture smooth instead of dollop it. I haven't ever done the no boil noodles so we'll see how this one turns out.
Manicotti
I did boil the manicotti it just felt too wrong not to boil them, because this recipe doesn't have a ton of sauce and I just saw crunchy pasta. If you do this one and don't boil the pasta let me know how it turns out. You can save a lot of time using the same meat sauce you made for the lasagna just make enough for both recipes.
Chili
This one is just my own chili recipe that I freeze and then put in the crock pot and serve will rhodes dinner rolls or some cornbread. I don't measure anything and I'm too lazy to write down an actual recipe. So you can use your own favorite chili recipe. :)
