Greetings all,
Due to some complicated circumstances, I'm going to need to make up some meals that are easily portioned out, frozen and re-heated for dinners in the not-to-distant-future. Already on the menu are:
Tomato sauce and Meatballs for Spaghetti dinners
Chili (of course)
Shellfish soup broth (to which fresh shellfish is added after broth has been thawed and heated)
Would love suggestions as I'm the sort of cook who rarely freezes left-overs. For me, it's usually cook dinner and leftovers are in the refrigerator to be eaten the next day, not frozen for next month.
So what have you found freezes and defrosts well? I have, in the past, frozen a beef stew, but found it didn't come out as tasty once thawed and re-cooked (no idea why). Open to other suggestions.
