re: The magic of freezing

I freeze a lot of meals items because I cook in bulk much of the time. If frozen properly, that food will last a long time.

I pulled out a vac sealed bag of meatballs and sauce a few weeks ago which were well over a year old and tasted like I'd just made the meal.

Gumbo
Lasagna
Meat sauce or meatballs and sauce (the meatballs can be over pasta or for a meatball poboy)
Lots of soups-I made a cauliflower tomato over a year ago and we had that last weekend. It was so darn good.
Red beans
White beans
Bean soups of all kinds
Chili and tamales
Mini crawfish pies
Quiche
Sweet potato casserole
Cornbread dressing and other dressings
Roast and gravy
The list is large.
