Everyday Food for Busy People
This is the giant zucchini that was gifted to me the other day. I turned part of it into Zucchini Carrot Cake.
The rest got shredded up and frozen.

Now I can use the shreds for more cake or bread or even in soups and stews.

It really speeds things up when I pull fully cooked chicken from the freezer. [Read more…] about Cooking Meat to Freeze for Later
