TweetSide dishes aren’t what comes to everyone’s mind when thinking of freezer cooking. But how better to get a meal on the table quickly than to have the extra’s already done? Side dish recipes on the site: Wild Rice Sausage Casserole Sweet Potato and Turnip Mash Classic Quinoa Pilaf Kid Friendly Potato Bake and a post from the last Cook…

Bulk Beef, A Staple in my Freezer

Posted on May 14, 2013 by Quick Chef | 0 Comments

TweetThere are very few meals made from ground beef or turkey that don’t freeze well. It just loans itself to quickly freezing and reheating is a snap. It also doesn’t dry out when reheating which is key to enjoying your prepared meals. I use a lot of ground beef or turkey when cooking. Mostly ground turkey because of my food…

Creamy Homemade Cauliflower Soup

Posted on April 20, 2013 by Quick Chef | 2 Comments

TweetI know we’re in spring time but here in the Northwest that means our weather is completely bipolar. We can go from 50 to 70 and then the next day back to 50 and cold rain again. Some days I want to serve a warm soup but I might not know it until the morning of. Easy, go hit my…

Weekly Meal Plan for 4/8

Posted on April 11, 2013 by Quick Chef | 0 Comments

TweetBetter late than never. However, this is still going to be a very harried post. If you are on the facebook page then you read that I wasn’t putting up a menu plan for last week. I had no need. We spent most of it at one or the other set of in-laws. Our weather came out awesome for once…

Weekly Meal Plan for 3-11

Posted on March 11, 2013 by Quick Chef | 0 Comments

TweetYikes, can you believe how far behind in posting I am here? I can’t! I’ve been so good about getting recipes and articles up the last 2 years and then bam. Well in my defense I’ve done a TON of cooking in the last week. To the point I got a little, ok a lot, tired of cooking. That didn’t…

Weekly Meal Plan for 3-4

Posted on March 5, 2013 by Quick Chef | 2 Comments

TweetIf you are on the facebook fanpage then you know that I spent most of Saturday freezer cooking. I’d ran 6 miles in the morning and then had to stop at the store for a couple of other things so I got a later start than I wanted. It also means that I ran out of energy for the second…

Orleans Style Black Bean Andouille Soup

Posted on February 17, 2013 by Quick Chef | 0 Comments

TweetThis is a very quick recipe. I do prefer to use dried black beans for the recipe because there isn’t the extra salt added like in the canned variety. Just make sure and soak the beans for a minimum of 24 hours before. Or I keep pre-soaked beans in the freezer so I can pull them out for recipes. Also,…

TweetYippee, I got another one done for you. I’m not sure why it doesn’t happen more often. Obviously my Sundays have been really busy in the last few months. That’s when I like to think about what we’re having for dinner the coming week. This week I’m just posting the meal idea and not what day. They are all up…

Tater Tot Casserole

Posted on February 10, 2013 by Quick Chef | 2 Comments

TweetI made this for the first time this summer. YES, summer. Of all the times right? My daughter requested it for her birthday dinner. Hell yeah, how cheap is that? Sadly we’ve brought our kids up to love many finer foods and it’s not odd for them to be requesting lobster and steak on their day. lol Oh well, we…

Southwest Chicken Chili

Posted on February 5, 2013 by Quick Chef | 0 Comments

TweetThis recipe is perfect for a 3 or 4qt slow cooker. I like to double it up and freeze extra portions. It just makes sense to make more to eat later. Plus it tends to get eaten for lunch the next couple of days after we have it. You can use chicken breast if you prefer to go with a…
