golddigger14s "question." My answer is easy, buy a deep freeze, a few boxes of zip lock bags (Some people use sealers) and a few muffin tins. There is one configuration of miniature loaf pan that is a little larger and has 8 rectangles.
Then I grill, smoke, or put together most anything I like using a regular recipe. A big pan of sausage gravy, few cans of biscuits after they were done in the oven. I just did some German potato salad today and have some in the mini-loaf pan. I will bag the chunks up in the morning (just run hot water over the back side until it releases) that will go with the 2 gallon sized ziplocks I filled with the leftovers of the two sides of ribs I smoked today. Did 20 burger patties last week, a brisket the week before. I do need to deep fry a few pounds of fish. (I was getting low on stuff) I also do stews, Crock pot roast, most any type of casarolls, soups, home made enchiladas, ham and beans, gumbo, you name it.
Nope, not quite the same as fresh in some cases, for instance, I do not care for full chicken pieces reheated, but better than store bought pizza in most situations for sure.
No need of trying to make a 1/10th size meal fresh every day. Make a full batch, eat a fresh meal of it and put what you might eat in a couple days in the frig, put the rest in the freezer for anytime later.
Doing this you can have a meal of what ever you choose in 10 minutes when ever you are ready. 1/3 the price of Mell's diner without leaving your house.
Humm, thinking about sausage gravy and biscuits for in the morning. Might fry an egg with it while it is slow thawing in the microwave.
Good luck to you. Try it you might like it.
