I have never done a marathon cooking session and then frozen multiple meals, but I still get my freezer working for me. You do not have to own a large freezer to take advantage of these ideas. Having a few of these items in your freezer can save you lots of time, without taking up much space. Here are five ways to use your freezer to save time and money.
1. Freeze cooked/prepped meats – I buy large packs of hamburger, but often only use about half or less of the pack when I brown it out. By storing the rest of the browned meat in the freezer I have meat ready for Nachos, spaghetti sauce, tacos, or Enchiladas all ready to go, saving me time later. Some recipes call for browning an onion with the meat. This can still be frozen, I just mark it that onion is included.
