Freezer Meal Preparation Tips
When freezing meals, prioritize foods that take a long time to prepare, such as Middle Eastern dishes like hummus or falafel, to save time on reheating. Tailor portion sizes to fit your family's needs, freezing smaller portions for couples and larger ones for bigger families. Innovative freezing methods, like prepping falafel batter for quick frying later, can streamline meal prep.
Avoiding Freezer Burn and Organizing the Freezer
To prevent freezer burn, eliminate exposure to air by using appropriate wrapping methods like bags or containers. Organize freezer contents by food type or dietary restrictions, using labeled bins for easy access. Adjust freezer organization based on the freezer type, utilizing methods like file folder-style bags in bottom freezers and labeled bins in upright freezers for efficient storage.
