Okay so I have tried quite a few of the freezer meals so far and have loved most of them. The pork dinners have both been good , and we have tried the honey chicken. I think that the honey chicken would have been better if I hadn't left it for so long in the crockpot. My crockpot is a very fast cooker even though it says that it is a "slow cooker". Most of the meals from http://melissafallistestkitchen.blogspot.com/2012/02/freezer-cooking-2.html?showComment=1346699136218#c3456854906029638060
say to slow cook for 6 to 8 hours on low, but my crockpot can do it in about 3 on low. If I wasn't a stay at home mom that would most definitely not work for me start in the morning. So far though I can not see why you couldn't bake them in the oven when you arrived home as long as you had them unthawed. The one pork meal from this blog was to be put in the oven and was very yummy. The chicken pot pies are soooo good. My family loves them. The pulled pork is also very awesome. It has a different taste from the bque pulled pork I normally have made (normally I just put Bulls eye bque sauce over it), but my family loves it. Lil man (my three year old) is very picky when it comes to his food, but he will eat a whole sandwich of this.
I have also tried the pumpkin french toast sticks(Wild Child loves them) and the spagetti pie from
They have also been very good recipes that my little family has enjoyed.
I have really enjoyed having the freezer meals. Even though I am at home, and people believe it should be easy to make meals it isn't always easy. I work all day long cleaning up after children and caring for them. I try to fill the day with fun learning activities. All the activities take time so it is nice to have at least the main course put together and it also helps with the cleanup. When dinner is served it is already pretty much cleaned up. I really love that part. It helps me to be able to enjoy the evening with my family before it is time for the kids to go to bed.
So in conclusion I am totally in favor of doing freezer meals!!!
