Throw a pork roast and some onions in a crockpot.Let the roast cook all day at the end of the day throw some potatoes,carrots and onions in with the roast let the mixture cook for a few more hours.The last hour the roast is cooking throw in 2 cans of golden mushroom soup and some flour it makes the most delicious gravy.Make sure the flour is mixed in real good.This is a great home cooked meal to freeze.Oh, do not forget to throw in some pepper.

Answer 3

Using a whole chicken (washed & cleaned) add cold water to cover, add spices you like to the water (garlic,onion,celery,tamarind etc) bring to a boil, turn off heat. Do not open the pot, leave to cook & cool for several hours. Remove meat from the bones,separate into portions & store in air tight containers. Then buy plum sauce or other oriental sauce,chop onions,garlic,celery,bell peppers, & stir fry veges,add thawed chicken, sauce to taste, serve with pasta,rice,bread etc. (cooked pasta also freezes well, and you can add any veges,sauce,or cheese for a really quick meal.) Another thing that freezes well is turkey chili, that recipe is from the "Michael Thurmond 6 week body makeover" & it's very good, you can check his website or others for a recipe, & tweak by adding or subtracting some spices you like.

Answer 4

Lasagna, Soups, Stews, any casseroles.

Heres a good one.

Mix cooked chicken with cream of mushroom soup and some frozen broccoli, and cut up onion. Put in a casserole dish. IF making right away Bake in a 350 degree over for about 30 minutes to heat everything and then top with cheddar cheese, and ritz crackers. put back in oven till cheese is melted and bubbly.

Here is another one
Ground beef spaghetti sauces, onion, green pepper, spice to taste, macaroni noodles, mozzarella cheese
Brown ground beef/drain add green pepper and onion and sauce
mix together warm up. mix in cook pasta and a little cheese. pour into a casserole dish and top with cheese if baking right away in not wait until you warmed it up and then top with cheese. yummy and quick

Answer 5

homemade meatballs can be easily frozen in sauce and then just heated up with pasta. Soups freeze very well too.

You can also freeze pies to add a homemade touch to after dinner.

I suggest that you experiment with different things to see which freeze best.
