Today I had two solid hours to work on freezer meals. I bought two family packs of chicken breasts at the store and made them into 10 meals. I grilled two breasts for dinner. I baked the other 10 breasts and cut them into cubes.
Then I made 4 quarts of Broccoli Chicken and Wild Rice soup, 3 8x8"pans of Green Bean Chicken and Rice casseroles and two bags of Teriyaki Chicken Stir Fry. Phew! I must admit that this recipe is pretty simple. Kind of like freezer cooking 101. In my defense, I would like to say that I needed something to balance out the soup and casserole. So yes, this is pretty basic. Please feel free to get fancy and make your own Teriyaki marinade. Me? I'm whipped! I cooked and assembled for two solid hours.
Ingredients:
4 chicken breasts cooked and chopped 6.08
2 bags of stir fry vegetables 3.96
2 bottles Teriyaki sauce 4.16
Directions:
Take two gallon zipper bags and pour one bag of vegetables into each bag.
Then add half of the chopped chicken to each bag. I also added half a sliced onion to each bag because the vegetables that I bought did not have onion. Feel free to add in any veggies you have in your fridge that you would like to use up...mushrooms, celery, carrots, asparagus, green beans etc.
Pour one bottle of Teriyaki sauce into each bag. Seal and squeeze to mix. Then label and freeze.
When you are ready to cook please let one bag thaw in the fridge for two days. Then pour the contents of the bag into a medium sauce pan and heat over medium heat. Serve over rice.
I made two meals for $7.10 plus the cost of rice.
If you are new to freezer meals and batch cooking you should try this. Then when you have an incredibly busy day you have a meal ready to go in just a few minutes.
Enjoy!
