October Freezer Cooking Days: The results
My freezer cooking plans for this month were modest, as I have very little room in my freezer.
And, my results were even more modest than I expected!
First, I found that I didn't have dried black beans in the pantry, and I didn't want to make a special shopping trip for them. So, they didn't get made. I'll buy some this week, and make it during the week (cooking beans in the crockpot is super easy!).
Secondly, I made two loaves of whole wheat French bread, which were cooling while I made dinner according to my meal plan. The pasta and veggies were just screaming for an accompaniment. So, I used one of the loaves to make garlic bread. Yum! But, only one loaf made it into the freezer.
I did make four quarts of chicken broth. I decided to try freezing one of the quarts in ice cube trays, to use in making sauces. And I did make four rolls of cookie dough, and still had enough to make a small batch of fresh cookies.
And that was it! Not exactly a ton of work, but I look forward to using these items in the coming month to make cooking easier.
