It seems like the people around my house expect to eat three times a day, everyday. There are days that I have plenty of time to cook, but there are other days which are so busy I don’t really have much time to put something together. I still want to feed them something good, and preferably from scratch. That’s where stocking the freezer comes in. I can quickly grab out something that I put together ahead of time and fix them a nutritious, delicious meal.
You might be wondering when I have time to spend stocking the freezer. Rarely, do I set aside time to stock the freezer. I just don’t. So when do I stock it? Most often it is while I am fixing a meal. Instead of laying out enough meat for one meal, I lay out enough for several meals.
Earlier this week, while I was fixing supper, I was able to get six more meals put together and stocked in the freezer. Then I went ahead and got the meat out of the freezer and started defrosting it so that I could put together four more meals the next evening while fixing supper.
Certainly, if you have a few hours to set aside to stock the freezer you could put together 20 or more meals.
