We just have the usual frozen chicken fingers, fish, tortellini and veggies in ours :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-in-your-freezer-meal-stash#post-2418542 Tue, 12 Jan 2016 12:31:07 +0000 SweetiePie 2418542@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not a lot:<br /> - pint of chili<br /> - broccoli cheese quinoa bites (for LO)<br /> - mini turkey meatloaves (awesome recipe uses liquid aminos and ground almonds)</p> <p>Today I have a huge batch of my moms pasta sauce in the crock pot. And I plan on making a bunch of zucchini tots and freezing them.<br /> And I'm going to get our favorite rotisserie chicken and shred that and keep it on hand. </p> <p>I'm not a fan of cooking but I really need to get better about this! Some of the soups listed here sound great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-in-your-freezer-meal-stash#post-2418454 Tue, 12 Jan 2016 11:44:51 +0000 Mommy Finger 2418454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got a 2nd crockpot for Christmas so I ended up using it a bunch the weekend of new years. I made the following:</p> <p>-Giant crockpot of marinara that I used to make 2 8x8 pans of baked ziti as well as 3 meals worth of meat sauce<br /> -8 meals of beef and mushroom stew<br /> -3 meals of pot roast<br /> -I baked about 6 lbs of chicken breasts, sliced them, and individually bagged them to be thrown into various dishes<br /> -3 meals of beef taco meat<br /> -We cooked 10 lbs of pork shoulder for carnitas<br /> -sausage and peppers and italian beef left over from DS1's birthday party</p> <p>Honestly, our freezer is packed between these items, other frozen meal staples (items from TJ's, frozen veggies), and other meat (chicken, fish, sausage). I also have an entire shelf of breast milk. We need to eat through our freezer! I don't think we'll need to go to the grocery store for anything other than produce and dairy for awhile. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-in-your-freezer-meal-stash#post-2418446 Tue, 12 Jan 2016 11:40:55 +0000 winniebee 2418446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not much....turkey pumpkin chili (skinny taste recipe), some homemade pinto beans for taco night, and some frozen meat. Other odds and ends stuff from TJs but nothing that constitutes a meal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-in-your-freezer-meal-stash#post-2418442 Tue, 12 Jan 2016 11:39:32 +0000 Mrs D 2418442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh...mine is pathetic right now!!!</p> <p>Split Pea Soup, Baked Potato Soup and Chili.
