So I’m working on putting 21+ meals in the freezer for after the baby is born.  I figured three weeks worth of pre-prepared dinners will come in handy.  And we have the freezer space to work with too.

This post is going to be kind of a running tally of this project.  I’ll post my 21 meal ideas as I think of them and cross them off or something as I actually get them into the freezer.  For each dinner I try to have a protein and 2 vegetables (or maybe a fruit)  or 1 vegetable and a starch (potato, rice or pasta).  Most of my casseroles have at least 2 vegetables in them so some dinners will be as easy as one-dish!

Any great freezer recipes anyone can offer, will be appreciated!

1. Meatloaf (served with broccoli from freezer and canned pears)

2.  Spanish rice, re-fried beans, corn & meat burritos

3 & 4.  Two dinners worth of enchiladas (with black beans & corn)

5.  Kielbasa (from freezer), canned sauerkraut, canned red cabbage and applesauce (from jar)

6 & 7. Two dinners worth of Spaghetti and meatballs (with sauce)  (pasta freezes pretty well)

8 & 9.  Chili (Jiffy boxed corn bread)

10 & 11.  Vegetable Beef Soup (Dave really likes this and it is really healthy!)

Okay, that’s all I can work on for right now.  Like I said, this will be a “working post”.
