Not exactly what you're looking for, but I really want to share this anyways: Freezer Burritos!!! Yay! Just ate some for dinner and they were great! Here's the deal:
1. Make a HUGE fiesta feast, we did it on cinqo de mayo just because the plan wound up close to it so we figured "why not?"
- Buy craploads of tortillas (we prefer flour, but corn could work too I guess)
- Make a batch or two of taco meat
- Make up some cut up chicken w/ taco seasoning
- Steak strips
- Maybe some seafood if you like
- Black beans, refried beans, mexican rice, guacamole, different cheeses (shredded, queso, the white mexican cheese that I don't know what it's called), fry up some onions, jalapenos, anything else that might freeze okay (no fresh veggies)
2. Eat what you want for dinner. This is the best part because you can have whatever you want!
3. After dinner, have a burrito making party! For us, that just involves me and my boyfriend but he never cooks and was okay with piling on the ingredients as long as I rolled up the burritos for him.
- Put whatever you like on each of them.
- Roll 'em up and wrap each in foil (similar to how a restaurant would wrap a burrito or sub if you're familiar with how they're rolled up in packaging)
- If desired, label each one as you're wrapping it. I used some address labels I had to write the main meat on each and then we used some gold stars (the kind with different colors) to color-code each for whose burrito it is (for example, all of my burritos had a red star and all of his had a green star), for easy grabbing.
4. Eat them whenever you don't want to cook or for lunch. If you do it for lunch, letting it thaw all morning or even overnight and then microwaving is good (just take it out of the foil!). I usually do them for dinner though and if you cook it from frozen, it takes about 45 minutes at 375 in the foil plus about 10 minutes w/o foil to crisp it up in the oven. Sooo good!
I also started making huge batches of soup and freezing them in single servings for lunch. My "soup bricks" are awesomely easy, cheap, healthy, and tasty for lunches! Since getting a chest freezer, I intend to do more of these things, it lets me take a break from cooking so much :)
