Everything's Coming Up Green

Archive for the ‘Freezer Cooking’ Category

   I spent the day baking for the freezer yesterday. This was quite the undertaking for me. You see, when I decided to spend the day baking I forgot that the very same weekend I had our churches women’s conference starting Friday night. I also had laundry and diapers that HAD to be washed. I chose to move forward anyway since I didn’t know when I would be able to dedicate an entire day to baking again and we were in great need of breakfast/snack items. I did however pair down my ambitions. I am still new to cooking/baking for the freezer so I’m very good at streamlining yet. I still hope to make Runzas this coming week. Here is a list of what I accomplished this week:

2 Batches of Cranberry bread (8 mini loafs)

2 Batches of Pumpkin muffins

Triple batch of Choc Chip Cookie Dough (to be frozen in individual balls)

2lbs of Taco meat (one pound went into the freezer, one went for dinner tonight)

That was all for this time around. Next month I will plan better and not double book myself leaving me more time to bake and cook without having to stop and get ready to go somewhere.

I am linking up to Freezer Cookng Day!

Despite the challenge I faced Monday morning (Darling Emma wet through her diaper and ended up in bed with us, which she doesn’t do so well at. Ultimately hubby took the bedding off and put a blanket down so she could finish off the night in her own bed and we could get some sleep), I managed to accomplish everything on my to do list for the day. Surprisingly I woke up quite energized and ready to start the day. We had breakfast and headed out to the farm to get my baking and cooking on. I got there and started right away. What did I get accomplished on Monday?

2-Meals worth of Mostaccioli Bake

2-Pans of Shepherd’s Pie

4-Mini Cranberry Bread Loafs

1-Dz Blueberry Muffins

The blueberry muffins didn’t make it to the freezer so I am planning on making 2 dz more this weekend to freeze. I think my husband would like it if I baked more often. I’m going to have to work on that.
