Breakfast Prep Freezer Meals! | Why does this still stink!?

[@teridoster5840]

Pre-making & freezing breakfast burritos was one of my main *go-to* breakfasts for late hubs for years, they were his fave! I'd skillet up a ton of sausage crumbles or chorizo or bacon, then hash browns & onions, then scrambled eggs, then my trick for getting consistent filling throughout was to mix it all in a big bowl with the shredded cheese & a jar of chunky salsa, and use a cup measure to fill the tortillas. After they were all assembled, I'd wrap them each in a paper towel and then plastic wrap n put it the freezer, so he could just throw them directly in the microwave without having to fiddle with the wrapping (and the plastic wrap seemed to help steam them without the plastic being in direct contact with the burrito, and he'd just roll down the wrapping as he ate it so it kept it together while eating without having to sear the seams). Perfect grab n go breakfast! 💜

[@cathyfink5284]

Very good ideas! Those burritos looked delicious! When cheese is too soft to cut try putting it in the freezer for about 15 minutes, it makes it easier. My BFF taught me a trick for a fast breakfast sandwich; in a small bowl you scramble 1 egg, add water or milk and seasoning and microwave for 1 minute and 15 seconds. It fluffs up to make a perfect little circle and you put that on your toast, muffin, or bagel. You can customize with leftover meat, veggies, and cheese. I love your way of making the eggs in a sheet pan but since we're a family of 2 I never make that much.

[@sandytmobile4467]

My daughter was over helping me and she cracked up 18 egg's and whipped sprayed a high ridge cookie sheet she chopped red bell tiny, small onion, She pepper and season salt little sprinkle veggies then spread shredded cheese on top . Put into the oven baked and after cut to the size of a egg muffin and Mayo muffin and egg got them done cooked and vacuum sealer up placed in oven. What a girl I have.

[@mamabairds]

What a girl indeed!! You got a good one there!

[@ninafleming4038]

When cutting Velveeta, either stick it in the freezer for a few minutes or spray the knife with cooking spray

[@janikay2708]

We all did a collective "AHHH" when the eggs spilled - just like my kitchen :)

[@mamabairds]

Darn nabbit! Haha

[@justcallmesuzzie]

As for that cheese, Temu has a cheese slicer that will help you a lot with slicing your cheese. I have always had one and it works so well.

[@kathleenchambers6485]

4 dozen eggs!🎉 You’re rich. 😂

[@Unapologetticaly.cortney]

I make these and wrap them in a paper towel when I cook them. It helps for some reason. 😂

[@ninafleming4038]

If muffins or bread or cookies gets dark in the oven or toaster, scrape it across a grater just a bit. That will all scrape off

[@cheriellis9215]

I always just made slices of French toast and cut them after. Easier and turned out great. I don’t think my kids would have ever known the difference. Life’s too short to cook all those little sticks separately! 😂 I’d often serve the whole slices for breakfast, then cut the leftovers into sticks for snack later in the week. Two different styles from one batch!😁

[@mamabairds]

I like that idea much better...haha

[@peanutt621]

For slicing the Velveeta, try cutting it with a piece of thread doubled up.

[@JAWELSH2008]

When you prep breakfast muffins and burritos, it helps keep them less soggy to wrap in paper towels and then the Saran Wrap.

[@tuxphinsmom1150]

I think the trick to cutting the Velveeta into thin slices is to put it in the freezer for 30 min or so to let it get firm and then slice it. You might try wetting your knife with water between each slice.

[@beckyluvstoscrapnsew]

I learnt the hard way to put the pan 3/4 into the oven shelf and then pour the eggs (or pancake mix etc ) in ……much less chance of spilling it …ask me how long it took to clean my oven , floor and my shoes lol😝

[@cnk2hoo]

I was totally holding my breath during that part! Love cooking them that way now

[@mamabairds]

I'll be doing that for sure next time..haha

[@Sakura8a]

I’m freaking out over the mateos jar 😍 it’s my absolute fav salsa 😂

[@GardeningWarrior]

You might try wiping all the smelly food with some warm vinegar water then rince with warm soapy water and dry. I used to clean houses professionally and that is what we would do for smelly freezers and fridges.

[@lilyflores7018]

@ Gardening warrior Thank you for the tip! My son forgot some shrimp in the freezer! It dosent smell very cute😳

[@mamabairds]

Thanks for the tip!

[@lilyflores7018]

@ GUARDIAN WARRIOR Q, I used that mixture you mentioned to wash and sanitize my refrigerator, and it worked!!!! Now I have my daughters using it also, the best part is that it's cheap! Thank you for sharing your tip, have a blessed evening🌸

[@GardeningWarrior]

@@lilyflores7018 You are very welcomed.

[@barbibrewerhaase6571]

Those plants look wonderful now! Glad you decided to keep them and revive them! ❤️

[@mamabairds]

Me too!!

[@TheLadymiss22]

We had a cheese slicer with a handle that stuck out (like on a frying pan) No telling how old it was, at least the 50’s. It had a wire stretched at the top. When it got dull, (don’t know if it ever broke) my Dad used the thinnest guitar string they made to replace it. He was always coming up with unique ideas. 🙃

[@Unapologetticaly.cortney]

I do eggs in the large size muffin tins and they fit perfectly on the muffins I have

[@HedgewitchHomestead]

Hey Carolina 👋 ladysnakevenom here 😁 this is my new channel. Thank you again for all your encouragement 🙏 ❤

[@mamabairds]

Yay!! I just subbed! You got this and can't wait to see what you put up! You can email me if you have any questions!

[@HedgewitchHomestead]

Thank you so much! I'm a tech dino n not sure how I would email you lol I have a ton of questions. Thank you again for all your support 😁😁

[@mamabairds]

@@HedgewitchHomestead my email is [e-mail]! Or you can give me yours and I'll send out the first email!

[@happyinharned9583]

They sale cheese slicers on the stores, it has a thin string you drag across the chase, 2or3 dollars , works very good on all cheeses

[@mamabairds]

I'll give that a try! Thank you !

[@LadyWeasel]

I put my sealer on the very edge of the counter, above a drawer and use the drawer to support the bag while I seal. Then I lay it flat to freeze.

[@alishaparr577]

You need one of those things wire cutter things for your cheese

[@jeaninemontes9881]

And it's that why three is a ton wire cheese slicer for soft cheeses

[@ginco5203]

Dental floss or fishing line works good for cutting Velveeta or any cheese.

[@homeboundmama9968]

The finger, the soapy water the lady said is very smart idea. The slicing of the cheese... Those sliders that temu has that turn by a handle and has three different blades is the best thing since sliced bread.

[@kdevon4736]

I make breakfast burritos for myself for work. I like sour cream in my burritos, but it gets sloppy when reheated after freezing. Instead, I started using a smear of cream cheese inside. When rolled, I wrap in plastic wrap, press and seal if I have it, and freeze. When I want it for work the next day, I put it fridge overnight, and zap in the plastic in the morning. Peel the plastic down to eat. Work well for me. It took some trial and error to figure it out. Everything looked delish!

[@ashleighdavison7950]

Lol, love the song you were singing to yourself while prepping 🤣

[@carolynscales8277]

Would putting citrus peels in the freezer help with the crab smell ?

[@AnnSumner9348]

I would try making some sausage gravy to add to the breakfast burritos. My husband loves them that way.

[@colleenpiechowski8511]

You could some more peppers and onions in with a can of pineapple and made sweet and sour meatballs over rice. Also you can slice Velveta with waxed floss.

[@mamabairds]

That is a great idea for those meatballs! I'll try the floss next time! Thank you!

[@sortathesame8701]

Your kids might like my kids favorite quick breakfast. I take thawed hash browns (or use my own well rinsed and grated potatoes), stir a little olive oil into them, push them into the bottom of a muffin tin and put them in a 425 oven until they are starting to crisp up. On top of that I put any meat and veggies (I precook everything while the potatoes are crisping!), beat together a dozen eggs, about a cup of half and half and salt and pepper and divide that mixture evenly over each 'muffin'. I bake these in a 350 overn until just barely set, let them cool completely and freeze in a large container. My kids will grab a couple out of the freezer, wrap them in a paper towel, heat in the microwave for 60 to 90 seconds and off they go...with a fast, nutritious breakfast! I can make up several dozen in about an hour and it's even faster when I have already precooked and froze my sausage, bacon, ham and veggies! I try to keep all these in individually packaged and frozen as it makes meals so much faster and faster means I am less likely to order delivery!

[@mamabairds]

Good thinking! Thanks for sharing with me!!

[@cathyfink5284]

I make these too and love to have them ready to eat. Since the eggs seem to stick I use parchment paper baking cups ($2 at Target) and they slip right out.

[@lindaking4812]

My mom used a piece of floss to cut cheese when no cutter

[@marciahalli9003]

That was some seriously awesome food prep!!! 👍

[@rachaelsupadventures]

I bought all the makings for egg bites just need to put them together and freeze lol.

[@mamabairds]

Very nice!! They came in handy for a fast breakfast!

[@racheallewis2437]

I cracked up when you went in on that burrito, I thought poor husband was supposed to get that!!!!!

[@mamabairds]

HAHA!! I know! I had to remind myself it was his!! Haha

[@kathytrevino5932]

Great 👍 breakfast variety. Yummy, now you can have 2 cups of coffee. Lol ✅ enjoy, relax

[@grannyitsybitsy4338]

Momma when using Velveeta go in tool box and use a tiny piece of wire . Floral wire works well too . Thin cheese

[@cindyupton7357]

Dental floss also.

[@dianablessing8761]

Great non messy way to cook the sausage Patties, love it !!

[@nancyimbleau2023]

Trying to save up for one but something else to pay always takes over and I never get to purchase it :(

[@jeanniedorsey6772]

The clothes pin is a fantastic idea!

[@mamabairds]

I think so too!

[@LisaDarli]

I do cook bacon in the oven but I never thought about doing the sausage in there. I will now 🙂.

[@mamabairds]

It turned out pretty good and had nice sear to it as well!

[@lethabrown7274]

dental floss is a great cheese slicer

[@lindatyler6396]

we don't eat pork but we do have beef chorizo and sometimes turkey chorizo

[@rachaelsupadventures]

Chorizo is delicious. I cook it with eggs and put it in tortillas

[@mamabairds]

Yummy!!

[@eulaujudy]

Question . I got some packaged block of cheeses How long is the cheese good for when it says best use by ....weeks months etc

[@NannyTam]

According to FDA: Hard cheeses such as cheddar, Swiss and Parmesan can be stored in the refrigerator six months before opening the package and three to four weeks after opening. It can also be frozen six months.

[@meeganjae72]

Jammerill just did 40 freezer breakfast meals, just for inspiration.

[@rachaelsupadventures]

Good evening Pretty Carolina ❤

[@mamabairds]

Hey girl!

[@thelemicgal]

You might try microwaving on 50% power for longer from frozen. I have found this helps heat burritos more evenly and completely.

[@rachaelsupadventures]

I add water to my scrambled eggs too. not sure where I heard to do it though!🥚🥚🥚

[@mamabairds]

It really does help so much!

[@madelynpasseggiata7833]

Sirloin strips, the way you cut them, also makes the best stroganoff

[@mamabairds]

I'll have to give that a try!! Thanks!

[@reginabriggs7107]

I use a piece of thread to cut my Velveeta. Works great

[@lorriemolina9401]

Those are huge burritos are they for the adults?

[@mamabairds]

Yes!

[@janetwashington3708]

My father in law would use evaporated milk to make spaghetti al carbanara with bacon and egg sauce. We have it every year for Christmas brunch.

[@mamabairds]

That sounds delicious!!

[@nancyimbleau2023]

Girl your sandwiches and burritos look so yummy

[@citygirlhomestead]

some great ideas fantastic

[@nancyimbleau2023]

I want to try that one day

[@craftingwithapurpose6479]

Cut the Velveeta with dental floss. Genius way to cook the eggs!

[@alinewright1093]

I think it would be a good idea to open the little packages toss little bags then wash your hands before touching the food to chop.

[@frugalcampermama]

Dang! You go girl! Super ambitious! I need a nap after all that work you did! BTW: Surgery went well! I’m home recovering! ❤️

[@terrikrysiak7719]

Prayers for a speedy recovery.

[@mamabairds]

So happy to hear it went well my friend!!

[@nancyimbleau2023]

Oh Wow I'm jealous I want a kitchen aid mixer so so bad lol

[@lesliefortie8347]

I need to try the breakfast burritos. My mornings are pretty chaotic even if I get things ready the night before. My kids could even eat them on the way to school if we are really behind🙃

[@sandytmobile4467]

Cut cheese into two inch blocks and fold dental floss pull it down to cut cheese.

[@sandytmobile4467]

Do the same with pancake batter. Spray cookie sheet well poor it on add fruit if you like. Yum that and egg ya

[@rosariodeamor2544]

Maybe next time you can scrape off the burn part of the muffins. They will taste better without the burn part.

[@stacyladeau419]

Sheet pan pancakes or french toast is always good.

[@ashleighdavison7950]

Whyyyyy have I never done French toast in the oven?? It would be so much faster than on the stove top.

[@mjoverocker6072]

Everything looks delicious except the chorizo sorry i never could eat it but great job on the freezer meals

[@suzieb8012]

FABULOUS video

[@christinehanna1699]

Use a piece of thread or fresh fishing line to cut Velveeta cheese 🧀

[@rachaelsupadventures]

I wish I had a gas stove...maybe one of these days🤞🤞🤞

[@mamabairds]

They are so great!! Haha

[@cleopeifer9912]

Velveeta cut with a wire cheese cutter - a strong thread might work in a pinch.

[@amywendlandt6297]

Try a cheese slicer, I bet Temu has them. :)😄

[@faukerconsulting835]

😊the little egg was sooo cute😳that big one must have hurt coming out🥚☝🏻you just might need to have her checked out😉 😁I hope your hubby had steak🥩 & 🍳eggs for breakfast...I tell ya the poor man is starving and going to wither away to nothing😊

[@mamabairds]

Oh he eats just fine!! Haha. He has the belly to prove it! HAHA

[@ashleighdavison7950]

Chorizo breakfast burritos?! Yes please!! Currently starving(making lunch while I watch) and this makes it worse, lol

[@nancyimbleau2023]

Can't eat beef anymore Dr's orders

[@marykey5813]

You could always scrap the over cooked area off your english muffin

[@SharonMyRetirement]

My mom used to cut Valveeta with strong thread, or dental floss, you can get it really thin. It sounds crazy, but if you actually put your sealed frozen package in cold water, it will thaw quicker, and better food safety

[@sallyapplegate4591]

I am so hungry now!!!!🤣

[@maureenbegas2856]

Hi. Freeze the velveeta style cheese till it’s more firm, not completely frozen through. Then you can slice it more thin. Also spray your knife blade with the pan spray. This will keep the cheese from sticking to your blade. You’re so cute. You can really see how much you love your family. I loved you singing to yourself!!!😊

[@monalarsen6364]

There NOT burnt they are perfect for my taste. I would just tell my family. " Just a little extra teeth whitening" ha ha.

[@TheInquisitiveFarmwife]

Busy woman…. Way to get things done!

[@terricheverie7840]

Dental floss glides through velveta cheese

[@nancyimbleau2023]

They are very expensive
