Welcome to {Love My Freezer Dinners}
A little background:
Its been about a year and a half since I hosted my first freezer meal cooking party with 5 of my girlfriends! It went so well that we’ve been having them every couple of months ever since! I think we’ve done it 7 times now.
We all set a date that works for everyone (usually a Friday night). Each girl plans a meal and brings enough ingredients/supplies for each girl to make her own pan of that meal to be frozen and enjoyed at a later date. So with 6 of us we each take home 6 different meals! (I think 6 is a great number, its enough meals to keep you busy for awhile but not too long and its nice having an even number for halving ingredients or something. Like a lot of times we’ll buy a large bag of cheese or something and split it between two people instead of buying 2 smaller bags, saves money!) But it works no matter how many people you have, sometimes we throw a 7th girl into the mix and it works just fine!
Its been so much fun being able to try new recipes and be able to pull a dish out of the freezer at any given time! So handy!
We always have so much fun doing it and it usually ends up being a pretty late night, we all like to chat!
The purpose of this blog is to have a place to collect all of our recipes and keep track of them in an easy way!
Over the next few weeks I'll be posting past party recipes and then I'll continue to post new ones as we go!
Thanks for stopping by!
