Freezer Cooking Day: My Plan For Tomorrow!

When I saw that Money Saving Mom and Life As Mom were teaming up to bring us a weekend freezer cooking day, I was so excited! You see, I have been wanting to do one of these Freezer Cooking Days for months now. They usually take place during the work week, since most of the mommy bloggers are stay-at-home-moms. This time, though, they wanted to give everybody a chance to join in (even those of us who unfortunately have to work all week).

This is something brand new to me. I have never in my life tried freezer cooking! Now, let me just be honest - I'm not attempting the whole "Once A Month Cooking" thing. No way am I just going to dive into this thing and make an entire month's worth of meals! I'm just trying it out tomorrow.

Here's what I am planning on cooking and freezing tomorrow:

*Meals*

• Triple Corn Casserole
• Baked Mac n Cheese
• Black Bean and Corn Quesadillas
• Vegetarian Crockpot Spaghetti Sauce
• Santa Fe Chili
• Black Bean Veggie Burgers
• Yummy Mac n Cheese (the best I've ever tasted, in fact)

*Baking - Breads, Breakfasts, and Desserts*

• Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins
• Alegheny Applesauce Bread
• Sandwich Bread
• Bread Machine Cinnamon Rolls
• Buttery Rolls
• Whole Wheat Waffles
• French Bread

So much for starting out small. That was overwhelming just to type out! Haha! I think I can do it, though. I am going into it with a master plan. I am trying to be very organized about it. I wrote all my ingredients down and went shopping tonight (as part of next month's grocery budget, since I'll still be finishing up the last few meals of Eat From The Pantry over the weekend). Tonight, before going to bed, I plan on writing up a detailed plan of numbered steps to follow tomorrow.

I'll have to let you know how it goes. I'm going to try to update as much as possible tomorrow while I'm cooking. I plan on sharing recipes and pictures! I'll try to get you some of the recipes that don't have links (if I have time - hehe).

Tomorrow I will be bringing you my final Super Savings Saturday for the month of January, and you'll get to see whether or not I stuck to my goals for the Eat From The Pantry Challenge. (uh oh).

Ready or not...here we go!
