**General Tips and Guidelines:

unless otherwise noted, soup cans used are the basic small can size, approx 10.5oz each. Foil pans can be used instead of cooking dishes for easy disposal – and are also easier to stack in the freezer this way; less heavy. Freezer bags work better than regular ziplock bags, as does heavy duty aluminum foil rather than regular foil. Both are slightly more expensive but prevent freezer burn when meals are stored for longer periods of time.
