Southwest casserole is definitely going to be making it on to my freezer food list. I started making freezer meals maybe 2 years ago. It saves so much time and finances especially since I love to eat out for convenience. I'm glad I found your channel you're giving me ideas😊

Yay! I hope you love it! I agree that it saves so much time and money to freeze some meals. I love being able to just grab something and put it in the oven 😃 I’m so glad to hear that and I’m glad you’re here too! I hope you love all the recipes ☺️

Also, wondering if you can share any instruction/recipe/how much cottage cheese you add to your pancake batter. I was looking at doing this a couple of weeks ago when we had more cottage cheese than we could use. Thank you💗
@LauraLegge10 ай бұрын
Thank you so much! ☺️ For the cottage cheese, I usually add it on top of a cooked waffle along with sliced almonds, fresh blueberries, and maple syrup or honey 😋 You can freeze the cottage cheese too, if needed! I’ll test out a few recipes for cottage cheese pancakes and let you know how it goes! I’m thinking I’ll use it in place of most of the liquid. I’m sure it’ll work beautifully!

Shoot! I didn’t realize I could have frozen it. Thanks for the info. I have heard cottage cheese is good mixed in the batter, though.

You always have great ideas and tips. I love doing freezer meals and actually do more in the summer than the winter. It gets so hot here in the San Joaquin Valley that anything I can prep ahead of time makes a big difference. I love your channel and I hope it keeps growing 😊
@LauraLegge10 ай бұрын
Thank you so much!! ☺️ That’s so nice of you to say! I love to meal prep in the summer too. Especially things like overnight oats and easy meals that don’t need to be reheated in the oven. It gets SO hot here too!

You could be my daughter, using words like, “goosh, all that jazz, wonky,” I say all of those on the regular. All three of my adult daughters say them as well. Another one I say when things are marinating is, “I’m just going to let it get its groove on.” Aka marinate and get happy. You’re so delightful.

I love doing freezer & fridge prep. I place 2 meals in fridge & the rest in freezer. I try to freeze any produce that I can get on sell, of course ones I know I’m not going to use right away. But it’s a saver for sure. I love your channel, you give me a lot of ideas on what to do when stubbed. Thank you so much.

I just love that! That’s such a good idea. I need to do a better job at making double of things that I’m already cooking so I have lots of extras in the freezer. I also love to freeze produce anytime I find a great deal! Such a huge money saver and helps me keep a variety of things on hand. And thank you so much! I’m so glad to hear that! ☺️

Surprisingly your Aldi prices are about the same as ours in Ohio so I have a good idea of what everything is going to cost. And I love that you love Disney lol.

I make a baked oatmeal that has a different ratio of ingredients than yours. For that size dish I would use 6 cups oatmeal, 2 cups milk, 3 eggs, I cup unsweetened applesauce or mashed banana, 1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder and sugar to taste (for me about a 1/2 cup). You can add whatever fruit you like, but I mix it all in bowl before putting it in the pan and then bake until it is firm.Mine turns out more of a cake texture and you really can't tell there is eggs in it.
