10 Freezer Meals! LESS that $2 50 PER SERVING!

[@sandrastar8141]

Great looking meals

[@myrtlelester383]

I love doing this type of thing. Yesterday I bought $48.00 worth of lean ground beef on sale. I We turned it into 70 meatballs, 17 hamburger patties, 6 - 1 lb bags and 2 full meatloaves for a total of 26 meals for 2 hungry people who love to eat. That is less than $2.00 per meal. It can be done and you are right it is good home economics.

[@tericandeloro4082]

That is fabulous Myrtle! 😱 What an abundance of security you’ve got there!!

[@myrtlelester383]

@@tericandeloro4082 Thank you for your comment. Yesterday our grocery store had pork loins on sale for $1.99 per lb. We bought 18 pounds and cut some into pork roast size and the rest into huge pork chops. We got 15 meals worth for $36.00 and that works out to $2.40 per meal for meat for 2 people. Lots of good eating for a very good price.

[@connierobertson7079]

Where did you get the containers?? This is a great idea thank you

[@candacethompson2521]

Lovin these meal idea's. Thank you.

[@fourdayhomestead2839]

Yummy. I like the scooping of potato idea.

[@HobbsHomestead]

I absolutely love these videos!

[@lisamartin3346]

Bev. At what temp would you cook these and for how long? How long will they last in the freezer?

[@LindaMH]

You are amazing!

[@dorissauerlender5211]

Hi Bev! Just a side note...you absolutely can do the freezer lasagna with gluten free noodles! The trick is that you have to cook the lasagnas first. Then cool then freeze! I make a very large (gluten free) lasagna for myself and my husband then cut into servings - 2 pieces each foil container- allow to cool and freeze. Then bake from frozen, covered, until heated through. Gluten free is a bit of a pain but it has helped with fibro flares and overall joint pain and stiffness. Thanks for all your good ideas!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Thanks for the heads up!

[@MaurenEckersley]

❤ brilliant, brilliant, brilliant

[@catholicfaithofmine2664]

Nice Bev! I love thrifty and healthy. Those recipies look delicious and easy prep. Great meals Bev.

[@cindyglass5827]

Great Job Bev !! Well Done : ) & Very Creative - it will all be so Yummy !

[@stephenseefeldt7473]

GREAT IDEA BEV

[@qualqui]

Its been a while since you last posted a recipe vid, then again it could be me not having watched the video, but WOW you're such a pro at Home-economics Mrs.V, thumbs up and thanks for sharing and showing we all can also be pros at Home-ec! ;)

[@margiebenson2067]

Awesomeness

[@nancymcdowell9607]

You rock economics!

[@Simplylivinglifethebestican]

Bev, you’ve taught me sooo much about food prep and food security. I love you’re cooking and preserving videos. You take the fear out of getting creative with our food and saving money at thr same time. Our daughter just said she would love more of the chicken meatball freezer meals I made her a couple months ago. Just ground chicken and stuffing made into balls and cooked. I added green beans, mashed potatoes and chicken gravy. Cheap and easy. I love knowing she’s eating well. Thank you for Everything you do for us.

[@judyshema6191]

You are amazing!! I have struggled for years to frost the top of cottage pie with mashed potatoes ~ Mess! You have taught this old dog a really neat new trick! Meals for two are just my size. Love the lasagna recipe too!

[@patriciaribaric3409]

I never tire of eating Shepherd's pie or Lasagna. Your island sure is helpful for making multiple meals!!! You gave me a great idea for using that ground turkey in my freezer (taco seasoned Shepherd's pie). Oh I wonder how it would be with corn bread batter instead of potatoes? Thank you for your inspiration!!!

[@m.c.1933]

I make a dish a lot like that but with chilli seasoning (tamale pie ) my whole family loves it and it freezes beautifully. I always make extra to freeze. You could also throw in a can or two of beans and top with cheese and have taco pie . God bless !

OOOO! Let me know how that turns out..I rarely cook with cornbread so I will be interested to see!

[@rexcarebear4701]

This is the best vid you do. So helpful and practical. So sorry for all your troubles but you definitely have shown how to chuck up and make lemonade out of lemons.

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Thank you!

[@mollysmith6055]

I love how far you stretched that meat and saved yourself time for your busy work days. I don't make lasagna very often because of how heavy it is and really too many carbs for us. Using just two layers of noodles makes so much more sense. Thanks, Bev.

[@jeanphillips1030]

Looking at Gracie.

[@angelasheppard7197]

Too cool

[@susanedwards9473]

Drive thru convenience but low cost and more nutritious!! Love this!!

[@ruthannmurphy3390]

I hope you and your family are doing ok. Prayers.

[@kathyfahnel3577]

Good idea and good meals for when you are busy with the rest of your many jobs! 👍👍👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️

[@anetzband1383]

Oh how I love this kind of video! THANK you. It came on a day when I had just bought some chorizo on clearance, found a pound of hamburg in the freezer, and thought, "I'll make some freezer casseroles!" Now to do it.

[@poodledaddles1091]

yum!

[@susanwilliams768]

Love the ideals

[@moggins52]

Thank you for the gluten free recommendation. I was just thinking of doing this but now I will just prep my separate ingredients 🥰

[@robertadriver6931]

Great meals!!!

[@audreynanapreps2543]

I love your home economics

[@deborahwagner9033]

good job

[@danaharris5446]

Got a new fridge today. I am so making freezer meals for one this weekend! Thank you for the blessings!

[@ediemurray1692]

[@carolmalko615]

I love your ideas for freezer meals. My mind is racing with ideas!

[@beckygrimshaw2145]

Love this idea.

[@sheilacollins3862]

just love the help you give dont know if you will see this but thank you

[@thewoodenspoon9679]

Good one Bev! These are getting better and better! You amaze me!

[@debrakanngiesser971]

Mmm the last dish looked so good.👍

[@Jomama02]

You're definetly creative!

[@jeanphillips1030]

Looks yummy BEV

[@5257Lee]

I did these months ago with countrystyle ribs I had made, with mashed taters & veggies, steak tips, taters, vegs, ziti, & chops with cubed taters etc.. such a time saver on weekends when i do not want to cook

[@renitamadrid4824]

There ya go.Mrs Volfies meals in the freezer section.Awesome.

[@debbiecrouch709]

I love the idea of the Spinach in the mix. I love 99 percent of cheeses but I do not like ricotta or smoked cheeses so I always use cottage cheese. Great video.

[@sheliajones8238]

That look really delicious you done a fantastic job with those freezer mean you sure did God bless you take care and be safe love you see you in your next video. And by the way you are a very sweet and kind person God bless you

[@lindaharvey5696]

Hmmm they looked so yummy will be making some for my freezer ....

[@47retta]

I prefer cottage cheese in my lasagne too!

[@aldod3937]

I like instant potatoes... doctored up it tastes wonderful

[@sherryleach2995]

That is a truly economical use of delicious ingredients. Just as I was thinking why is Bev using parchment in her containers you answered my question. I have ground Italian sausage in my freezer I'm going to make lasagna with it one for dinner and one for the freezer. Thanks for the inspiration Bev Much love from Northwestern Ontario Canada.

[@kno1985]

Best frickin idea EVER!!!! I'm so doing this later today and now I won't have to cook ever single damn meal, every day! Hope you're feeling better! Much love from Texas

[@luckyrobinshomestead]

Bev, what is the purpose of lining the pans with the paper? Are you going to pop them out later and stick them in Ziplocks or plastic wrap?

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

I just don't like putting my food next to tin foil

[@luckyrobinshomestead]

@@OurHalfAcreHomestead Oh, okay. Makes sense.

[@christinebrush4399]

why parchment in the bottom of pans please?

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

Because I don't like freezing food against foil...personal prefernce.

[@lifeonthefarm1844]

Hmmm I guess you leave the parchment paper in there to cook as well? 🤷‍♀️

[@rickharks4515]

Question, l might have missed it,, but why do you put parchment on the bottom?

[@AC-qi9wo]

She didn't want her food sitting on the foil, and I'd say they come out of the pan easier.

[@LeeCraftyHomestead]

where you find the foil pans ?

[@AC-qi9wo]

I believe Dollar tree, carrys them.

[@LeeCraftyHomestead]

@@AC-qi9wo thank you

[@virginiareid5336]

Now that is certainly economical. You are feeding two people for about $4.30 a meal. Plus they are ready to bake, which doesn't take prep time when you are ready to have them. If I were there, I know I'd ask for a buttered Slce of your homemade bread. God Bless

[@patriciaribaric3409]

& toasted with a little garlic sauce!!!

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

@@patriciaribaric3409 Making more garlic sauce today

[@1011rashad]

I still got two turkeys in the freezer I need to do something with them quick

[@AC-qi9wo]

I may have to do this since the four of us, don't always want Lasagna, I don't understand Lasagna, is the best :) yum...

[@elizabethwilliams1523]

Hi Bev. How are you after your car crash? Hope you are better. X

[@hartrose33]

Thia is great. Just to let you know that your voice doesn't match. It is behind. Not sure if you can fix it or not.

[@mollysmith6055]

I wondered if it was just me...I noticed it when the sounds didn't match the cooking, lol.

[@gingergargoyle]

And this isn't even including the goodies you have in jars or dehydrated ...you're sitting pretty

[@stormyfleur]

this is for people who don’t have the casualty to get good food right? not actually a diet xd

[@OurHalfAcreHomestead]

This is not a diet..just making nutritious freezer meals on a budget.
