[quote=Anonymous]A few words of caution. Label everything with what it is and the date.  You will think "oh I will remember what this is" but with a bit of frost, everything begins to look the same.  And you will stumble across something from the back that you will have no idea how long it has been there.  You can just use a marker an masking tape.

1.  Chili - turkey or beef.

2.  If you have time to cook it, its best to make things like lasanga and stuffed shells and freeze uncooked.  Take out of freezer the night before and put in fridge.  But this does require time to preheat oven and bake.  But this doesn't help if you what you need are meals ready quickly after you get home (I used this when I was home earlier but wanted to spend time with my son versus in the kitchen).

2.  Not a complete meal, but I cut up chicken into stir-fry pieces, and pull out and put in fridge the night before. Then I can do an easy stirfry  (I also have a rice cooker with a timer).
  
3.  Pizza sauce. Not really needed if you don't make homemade sauce.  But I like homemade better for pizzas.  So I make and freeze in portions.  Pari with pillsbury dough, trader joes dough,etc.
