To save freezer space, I line the pyrex dishes with foil , leaving enough on each side to fold the foil over the contents. Then label the contents, and freeze the entire dish. Once frozen, remove it from the dish and place in a ziploc bag, They take up less space and can be stacked. Then to use, remove from freezer, thaw in refrigerator, and place in original pyrex dish to bake. Easy cleanup as it can be served right from the pyrex dish.

Because of Becky, I planted my tiny garden. I grew flowers “from scratch” from seeds. I grew squash, tomatoes, chilies, green beans. I’m actually teary eyed right now thinking about all she has inspired me to do. She can’t even imagine the “seed” she planted in me to get off my hiney and do something useful. I have a long long way to go but Becky and now Josh, her mom and dad are always welcome in our home and new uploads bring smiles to our faces. She’s a blessing to my family. She’s a blessing to me.

I loved this chat! Here's my tip for freezer cooking. You don't want to leave your frozen lasagnes or whatever in the freezer for 7 months so not only do I label my items, I write on my calendar say: Eat freezer lasangne today. I space out the same kind of meal on my calendar weeks apart so we're not eating the same thing too often. You don't have to eat the meal that day, just try to eat it that week. That way it doesn't get forgotten.

I'm retired (older) and I know I can do more if I stop and take a nap after I garden. I get up around five so I can get out while it is cool, work as much as is comfortable, take breaks and I can get about four hours in each day. Shower, eat lunch and then a two hour nap! The late afternoon is for housework inside, reading or KZbin, depending on what I'm trying to learn. Diner, around six thirty and a little more garden time to set up hoses to water, or other short chores. I find it hard to sleep more than six hours at a time, so my afternoon nap is great! With canning or freezing produce coming up soon, I just save my reading until late evenings or winter. It's like using each season for it's best purpose, I try to place my work into the best hours of the day for each chore. The laundry doesn't get harder doing it at the hottest time of the day and the dishes can wait until after my nap!

We are seniors also and we take afternoons for napping and rest during the hot part of day. I do the most important which is dishes-laundry-toilet,and the rest can wait till I cant stand it or it rains.All summer time is for the outside getting maintenence done and gardens. We built our Hoophouse last year,this year a shade house and another larger Hoop greenhouse going up in the spring. Another large garden area we are building now while we fix the roof runoff water problem at the same time..bought a Dehydrator-have canning supplies if I ever want to learn it-but I freeze it all right now. We read and listen to volumes of material year round but tons during wintertime..

40 years ago before youtube I use to have to make freezer meals for my family because I worked during dinner hours. I used Sunday afternoons to make many meals. I used the protein to make the meal list. chicken--stir fry, chicken pot pie, baked chicken with pot & vegies, chicken noodle soup etc. The most important thing I found was to freeze the ingredients seperately then add them together for the freshest tasting.

Think, take out the frozen meal, put it into the oven, set the oven to cook so it’s ready when we walk in after work. Huge benefit and no waste. Cost effective & very little waste. Thanks ladies.

When you are making meals for the freezer, freeze them in a Pyrex dish and then put them in a ziplock bag frozen..then when you pull them out and put them in the same Pyrex to thaw. It saves on Pyrex and since the food is frozen you can reuse the bags!! Just wash them out! They stack well in the freezer as well!

We could make a beautiful growing season. I can say my peppers are so happy. My husband also used his gas post hole digger so I could plant my tomatoes and peppers extra deep this year. It has made such a difference with this dry heat. They aren’t struggling with their roots stretching so deep.

I'm in northern Montana. I just moved my family here from Washington to start my homestead. In the last month we got cows, chickens, and planted a 1/5 acre garden. This cold, wet weather has made gardening so hard here, too. It's been a discouraging season and I thought I was doing a poor job gardening until I realized how hard it's been for everyone this year. I'm not giving up though! I just started some different things indoors and will do a greenhouse next year to protect my more delicate plants. This is a lifestyle. You can't just give up if mother nature throws a hard year at you.

Y'all need to watch That 1870s Homestead too! Rachel doesn't do "freezer meals" per se but she cans a lot of prepped ingredients that then become "dump n go" meals. My favorite is her canned tomato sauces: Italian flavor, Mexican flavor, creole flavor and plain, you can turn those into so many different dishes with just a few added ingredients. All you ladies inspire me in so many ways THANK YOU.

Exactly! Time management versus guilt versus the 'you're-never-done' homesteader mindset. For the past 3-4 years I've said to myself, 'have a smaller garden and get in more time in the saddle, work on my novel in the summer, etc.' Well, then all of the events happened, and I didn't dare ease up on growing most of my own food. But, last January I 'cheated', and bought large bags of baby carrots and canned them. So, this year, I may plant one row of carrots instead of four, and I'm leaving out beets. I can buy pickled or Harvard beets, and find deals on carrots in the fall. Summer is toooo short to be a slave, so I'm compromising and I will NOT feel guilty!

He really liked the homemade burritos because it was something he could eat in the car on his way. I really enjoyed seeing the two of my favorite girls together on one show. We grew 52 pepper plants last year and had to get creative on the multiple ways to preserve them. I like the idea of making stuffed peppers. That's one I never tried before.

I'm glad I found this video. Becky has been an inspiration to me. I've started making my own bread with her recipe, and starting to do some canning, and also making extra meals that can go in the freezer when making dinner.

As with Becky, we are a family of 2, so large casseroles just don't work for us. We do leftovers but with a 9x17 dish, we would have to eat this for 4 days. I usually try to freeze things in smaller batches. Containers are the hardest part, but I found some smaller containers that might work. When I make spaghetti I make a quadruple batch and freeze just the sauce. For breakfast meals, I take a roll of breakfast sausage, cut into rounds and freeze on a cookie sheet, then I put them into a bag so I can take out as many as I need to make for breakfast. You can buy sausage patties, but they are way more expensive when the stores package them. I cook an entire package of bacon then freeze it, so I can take out what I need and microwave them for 30 seconds. I also buy "Grands" biscuits in the bag, so I can just take out 2 or 3 to make instead of wasting an entire tube of canned biscuits. Yes, I can make biscuits and have tried, but I haven't found a recipe that is as good.

I am the same with the small family. I have found small foil casserole pans on Amazon and I will do her large meals but put them into 6 casserole dishes. Yes, it takes up freezer space but I have 6 months worth of some meals so I do her occasional casserole, the marinated meats in smaller ziplock bags, breakfasts, breads, etc. I love the ideas and doing it, I just package it for my family

We must have gotten all your pre-summer temperatures here in middle Tennessee. The whole month of June, except 2 or 3 days, we were in the late 80's to mid 90's. Hotter than the last 7 pre-summer month years. Freezer meals sounds like TV Dinners. Kind of great to make. I like Becky's "letting things go on the way side" philosophy of prioritizing. I am also, so glad, you admitted that not all things get done, Carolyn. It makes me feel better about my decisions and how my place is left on the wayside, and I live in an apartment. I have had to take more time for my health. Thank you for all the information, both of you. :)

I never thought of the decades of putting food in the freezer as "freezer meals". Another good way to make stuffed peppers is to cut up the peppers as well. The bechamel sauce would be great on that. Thomas's English muffins with a slice of cheese, scrambled egg &sausage patty, frozen Is a good one. Make the innards for the breakfast burrito, but keep the tortilla as the fresh component.

Garden lull that was curriculum development and lesson planning time of the school year coming for me. So, more of a working vacation. Breakfast burritos are so special if you have the time to reheat them in the air fryer. They will pick up beautiful colour.
