Delicious meals that will have you feeling anything but left out in the cold! Don't freeze up when your family asks what's for dinner - reach into the freezer instead. The Freezer Cookbook provides home cooks with the tools they need to make delectable, healthy meals using fresh and flavorful ingredients, with information on shopping, cooking, freezing, thawing and everything in between. This unique compilation of 150+ family- and freezer-friendly recipes, made without processed foods, will help busy families save time and money, while still enjoying home-cooked meals. The book provides an all-encompassing look at cooking freezer meals: getting organized, making lists, shopping strategies, nutritional information, making a lot of freezer meals in one day, freezer organization, freezer meal swaps, thawing and more. It also offers a mini starter program for beginners, an intermediate program and, for more advanced cooks, a guide to making 50 freezer meals in a day. You read that right: 50 meals in a day! And lest you think these are just ho-hum basic meals, you're in for a pleasant surprise! Within the beautifully photographed full-color pages, you'll discover recipes for every meal of the day and for every occasion. Start your day off right with Morning Energy Bars or Breakfast Burritos. For dinner, choose from elegant offerings like Chicken Tikka Masala and Bacon Carbonara Pasta Pie, or serve a kid-friendly meal like Amazing Macaroni and Cheese.
Meatless mains such as Lentil Supreme Shepherd Pie and Spinach Gnocchi Bake will satisfy even the most discerning vegetarian or vegan. And with side dishes like Cilantro Lime Corn and desserts like Layered Chocolate Mousse Cake, you'll always have the perfect finishing touch to your meal just a freezer away.
