[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good ideas in this thread!

Tonight I microwaved frozen stir fry veggies and rice, and pan fried frozen dumplings

A new favorite is short cut fish tacos - toast your tortillas over the stove, bake frozen and breaded fish, cut up a jalapeño and cabbage, mix lime/yogurt/cilantro. Comes together in under 10 min (not including all the bake time) and is super easy and flavorful. Our kids just eat the fish and a plain tortilla and some fruit on the side. [/quote]

I do this with butterfly shrimp - cook the shrimp, cut off the tails and throw in tortilla with avocado, maybe black beans, bagged slaw mix tossed with sriracha mayo. Easy peasy.

I also always have quart ziplocks full of homemade spaghetti sauce in the freezer -- I make a vat of it every few weeks. Nothing easier than melting some spaghetti sauce, cooking some pasta and ripping open a bag of salad.[/quote]

I hate melting frozen bags of liquid. Do you thaw in fridge the night before? Or thaw in liquid (I’ve tried that but often leaks and then you have watery sauce)? Or cut the bag off and put frozen sauce blob directly in a pot on the stove to melt? I need your tips! I’ve always loved the idea of frozen leftover but hate the process of reheating. I feel like it doesn’t really save me any time or energy. [/quote]
