This sounds good (and easy).  
Do you freeze it in a plastic tupperware type container and just microwave it when you want to eat it? [/quote]

It is very easy.  Occasionally if I want to up the oomph in flavor, I will add a few tablespoons of tomato paste to the recipe.  If I do so, I'll put it in at the start right after the corn is roasted and let it go a minute or two to carmelize the tomato paste before putting the other ingredients in.

Yes, I use regular plastic freezer/microwave safe tupperware.  A couple of tips on microwaving.  If you take it from the freezer, put it through a defrost cycle before you put it on high.  Putting frozen items into the microwave on high generally ends up with a completely uneven consistency.  You'll have the parts on the outside that will either get overcooked or micro-burnt while the inside is still partially frozen.  Or things like stew, the outside will get mushy and start breaking down before the inside is reheated.  I find that defrosting, stirring with a spoon and then reheating to work better, especially with stewed items.  Also, if you find that it is getting a little dried or thick in the reheating, then add a little bit of stock/chicken broth/vegetable broth, stir and continue heating.  [/quote]
