Do you have a Gordons there? Where you could buy restaurant size cans, probably would save a lot of money!
@@carla4543 We don't have a Gordons here. Costco used to have restaurant size cans of things like tomato sauce, but they don't anymore (at least not at the ones here) but there is another warehouse store that we are thinking we should check out and see if they carry them.
Yes but how do you decide which one to make
I love the "stop to chat" parts of the videos! I am binge watching you and love this. I need to watch more Canadian Cooking shows. :) Edited to say... I love the hits you gave too. And the fast forward showing a kiddo and a hubby. Great video.
Aw. Thanks! We love to chat too! You're lucky that's all we put in. Haha! Thanks for watching!
I LOVE the whole room shot while your cooking. Such a great behind the scenes view. And made me feel SO much better about my freezer meal day that took over my dining room and kitchen!! I adore you all. Xo
Bahaha! Yes! It gets pretty crazy in there! It's good to be real. It looks neat and tidy normally, but behind the scenes, there can be some real chaos!
Couldn’t be better timing for me. I’m having surgery on my hand/wrist/arm on Friday and went to Costco today in preparation for a marathon cook of freezer meals!!!! So many ideas! Thank you for sharing ladies, and enjoy your meals. 🌹Rosie of Oz🇦🇺 & 🐶Omega the Cavalier🐶
Good luck with your surgery! I'm glad the freezer meals will help!
I like the way you all cook and like how nice you are.
Aw. Thanks! I think we're nice too! 😊 And we aren't that fancy in the kitchen. Just regular kind of cooking with the freezer meal twist. Gald you're here!
I started watching you guys two days ago and now I'm meal prepping for myself, and partner thank you :) any ideas for picky eaters I'm more veggie side but like chicken or ground beef he on the other hand likes meat more we're both picky. love you guys keep up the good work I've defiantly have made some of your recipes!
Hi I’m from the uk so I have total understanding of how it feels to be in a hot kitchen with no air conditioning! Thank you so much for all the lovely meal ideas! I’m off to the shop tomorrow to get supplies and will make quite a few of your meals!
You are so welcome! Let us know how you like them!
Get a smoker for the chicken... or bake alllllll the chicken breasts at once on baking sheets... hard to use the oven when it's hot...but totally hands off!! Also using the instantpot can work...and then you have chicken stock for recipes too...when done
I used baking sheets in the oven this time, but I'm thinking I should have used the Instant Pot. I've used that for prepping chicken before and it worked really well, but I had so much chicken to cook that I knew I would have to do it over and over again so I opted for the oven. Great tip about the chicken stock from the Instant Pot! Thank you.
Yes I just cooked chicken in a electric pressure cooker was about to dump out and said wait chicken stock. Put in containers to freeze.
Yay I’m from Canada too! Just found your channel ❤️
Hi from Illinois, i just wanted to say thank you for all you do. I have to be gluten free and so many of your recipes are easy for me to switch it to gluten free and make my life easy. Thank you again. Hugs to you and yours 🥰
You are so welcome! One of Sharla's sons was gluten-free for a period of time, so she is very good at being aware of it. I'm glad they help. :)
When I do my freezer manicotti , I stuffed manicotti and then put it back in the plastic divided container it comes in from the store and put it in a Ziploc bag. Then you would have to put in cooking pan later.
I am a Pampered Chef consultant and I love spotting all PC tools!
I have a soy sauce pineapple chicken marinating in the fridge now. We grill it!
That's a brilliant suggestion for the manicotti! Thank you.
Yes, we love Pampered Chef (as you can tell)!
I like the new camera angles. Nice job ladies.
Thank you!
Y’all just make my day! Love watching your videos and how y’all’s friendship is so real and special. Love all the tips .. like using recipes that call for any frozen foods that go in the recipe and making them first so it frees up space in the freezer for your freezer meals! Great tips on shopping etc Just all the stuff y’all are awesome and I truly enjoy your channel! Thanks for all that y’all do and for sharing your recipes! Blessings!💕
Y’all are the greatest! I need to hang out and learn all your wonderful strategies. Blessings to you and your families! 🥰🌸💜✝️
And again I love watching you two!!!! You are such great friends!!!❤ love all your fresh ideas and how to cook them!!! Awesome!!!🎉🎉🎉
This was AMAZING👏 This content is so quality. Useful & informative. I'm thankful. I don't have FB & I'm going to join now!!! Just to hang with y'all in your group. TFS🤗
Thank you so, so much!
Your meals sound like they would be great to try. Thank you.
Hi Sue - they are pretty delicious. Give a few a try and let us know what you think!
Hey ladies! Thank you so much for these amazing videos. You both put in sooo much hard work. I cannot thank you enough! I started meal prepping freezer meals this past weekend. I tried Kathy’s lazy Rouladen and it was AMAZING, just absolutely delicious!!!! Definitely a staple in our house! Thank you for all your hard work!! ❤
I had no idea you were in Canada. Awesome, I am in Norcal US. So nice to meet you two.
Love this site. It has made my life so much easier. I don’t do cooking marathons but I do make double of everything I’m making . I was going to try canning cowboy beans but now You have encouraged me to make the freezer meal style. Lots of great recipes ideas ladies. Thank you!
Great to hear! Doubling meals is an awesome way to do freezer meals! Much more simple, IMO. I've had a chance to try the cowboy beans after freezing and they are delicious! Good luck!
Just started watching you ladies, have not tried any recipes yet but I will be. I did hear your comment about the shopping list. I have started a google spreadsheet for my family and in 1 column we put the item, next who wanted this item and then there is a drop down list where I can choose the isle it is in, in the store, before I leave for the store, I sort the list by isle so I am not running around the store anymore. And I always have my list bc it is on my phone.
So smart Gail! I used to have an app called "Out of Milk" where I could put my shopping list on it and sort by the aisle it was in. I had it in the order of the aisles at the grocery store. I was very good at using it and then they did a big overhaul that reset my aisles and I sort of gave up on it. I like your thinking and I also like being that organized. :)
Wonderful recipes. I have tried many from your past videos and each were delicious. Thank you both!
Our pleasure!
I got some really great ideas from these recipes. thank you. Good luck with your club. I might join up down the road. I love you two! Great job on this video!🥘🥩🍗🥓🌶🍜🍠
Thank you so much!!!
you ladies are amazing! i love the convivence of freezer meals and all your tips! time to stock up the freezer!
Thanks Molly! You've got great tips on your UA-cam channel too!
You two are fantastic
We think you're pretty fantastic too! :D
Hi from the UK! Making the corn chowder this evening! ❤️ great video xxx
Awesome! We would love to hear how it turns out for you.
Would love a shop with me viedo ❤️
I saw that shoulder rub in there sharla! ❤️ so sweet
Yep, he's a keeper!
We are having a heatwave in the UK also...its not nice!! Love the recipes, you two always help me meal plan
Thank you! Our heat wave has continued into this week. We’ve got a few fans going but it’s still sweltering. Winter will come soon enough though!
I just LOVE watching you freezer meal videos, so inspiring. I just got done making 55 individual dinners for my 84 year old mom she calls me everyday telling me how happy she is and is enjoying all of them. Thanks for the wonderful ideas. How/ where do I find the fb page to join?
That makes me so happy to hear! I'm glad your mom is enjoying the meals. I'm sure they help so much.
You can find the Facebook group here: facebook.com/groups/241144882941938
@@FreezerMeals101 thank you I found it and am ecstatic!
I made my own version of a keto cream of mushroom soup this past week and I have a cans worth frozen in the freezer as we speak... if thaws it will be a game changer for my keto self to eat with the kids vs separate all the time! Fingers crossed! I'm thinking I might cheat with frozen meatballs and try to make meatball stroganoff in the crockpot tomorrow!!! Could easily swap out some chix bouillon for cream of chicken, and add in cheese for cheddar cheese can soup too!!!
I love to put lots of frozen chicken into my pressure cooker and cook until very very tender. It is so good when done in a pressure cooker. But that is just me and my family.
I want you two to grow your UA-cam bigger. I shared your video. Woo hoo for you 2.
Thanks so much! We appreciate that a lot.
Question: why would you use cottage cheese for the manicotti and not for the ravioli? I have an Italian aunt that threw a small fit once when my mom made lasagna with cottage cheese. I am team ricotta, but cottage cheese is ok if someone else makes it. BTW I am a club member and so far I have been enjoying the recipes. I have also converted other recipes to freezer meals. Once tested I would love to share them with you guys! I LOVE your videos and watch every one!!!!!
P.S. please put a wet cloth/paper towel or an anti-slip mat under you cutting boards. It will keep your board from slipping around and lessen the risk of cutting yourself. I would hate to see one of you cut yourself making wonderful food for us to try making.
Lmao. I live in a basement apt in canada, and the landlord just installed an ac in the house this summer. 🤣
Just a heads up in the frozen food section, you can get perfectly, cubed chicken well, you don’t have to pre-cut it that’s one thing I think I would take the extra step in the extra expense on! The little, cubed chicken it’s just the same size you would put in a pot pie will save you time in hours. I think the bags of 20 ounce bags, but I think they might have bigger bags as well but then again, it would make life so much simpler if he did That
That would be a HUGE time saver! I've never seen it at grocery stores in our area, but I'll have to look specifically and see if I can find it. Thanks for the tip!
@@FreezerMeals101 absolutely I ran across it in our local Walmart when I was walking down just a freezer section isles if I remember right I think it was over near. Thanks like the pot pies it caught my attention out of nowhere! New to your channel and absolutely love it.
I went to Alaska in 2006, the people I was staying with had the air conditioner on at 25c!!!!!! Omg 😆
Hi Sharla
Hi Jennifer!
Wow I wish I could. But thanks for the freezer meals 101. I just found the recipes I was looking for 😌
Prawns 🦐 😆😆
I've been watching a few of your videos. I'm wondering if you guys ever stock your freezers with breakfast meals and/or lunch and snacks. Or do only prepare dinners?
If you don't, how do you handle those other meals? Do you plan them, prep them weekly, or just make them fresh each day?
We sure do! As a matter of fact, we've got a video coming out on Sunday of Grab and Go Breakfasts. It takes a bit longer to do breakfast or snacks because you're usually baking them before freezing, but we find that it's still so worth it to do. Plus of course it saves money and is healthier than a lot of the packaged snacks out there. Here's one of our videos on make ahead snacks: ua-cam.com/video/G9P822PkS6U/v-deo.html
In Montreal Canada…we need AC! It’s is 31c here and 100 humidity!
Humidity makes it feel so much warmer... no wonder you need AC!
Yup! In Ontario it’s a MUST to have AC. 😅
Thanks ladies! Your recipes always look so good. I was wondering 🤔 is Christy losing weight? Girl, you're looking thinner!
Please coat the foil with a layer of shortening before putting acidic food in. It prevents the acid from eating through the foil and giving a potential aluminum taste and causing some diseases.
Thank you for the tip. We have noticed that any red sauce does start to "eat through" the foil over time and have been wondering how to combat that.
Wow first one to comment!
🎉🎉🎉
We have been over 100 for 2 months in Norcal. But hey, we are used to it I guess.
That is HOT!
How do you keep your freezer bags from sticking together during freezing?
The bags stick together if they are damp on the outside so if we have any spills, we are sure to dry the bags really well before freezing. Also, we stack them on different shelves so that they have a bit of freezing time before the next one gets put on top. But if you don't have the space for that, you can use cardboard or parchment paper in between them to ensure they don't stick together.
I'm wondering if yoir food club has where we can enter ingredients we have on hand and it can pull up recipes to meet qhst we have on hand.
Yes! You can type in an ingredient and it will pull up all the recipes with that ingredient. It's especially handy if you find something on sale and want to be able to take advantage of that sale.
What is the white thing you put on the freezer meal? It looks like some kind of covering and where do you get it?
Do you mean the labels? I use Avery 8163 Shipping Labels and print up the recipe name and cooking instructions on them. When you do over 100 meals, it's tough to label them by hand.
@@FreezerMeals101 No, It covered the whole tin pans you were using. Maybe it comes with the tin pans like a cardboard lid possibly?
Yes, for the individual sized meals, the tins come with lids that are foil on one side and white on the other. The white side can also be written on (in place of adding a label).
@@FreezerMeals101 oh that's awesome. Thank you
i hope you can answer asap with the teriyaki lettuce wraps. is the carrots and peppers thrown in the freezer bag raw?
Yes!
@@FreezerMeals101 thank you! i greatly appreciate your videos. life saving! Your rockin awesome!
Sharla, has anyone told you that you look like Andie MacDowell!
Thank you! (it must be the curly hair!)
Doesn’t stapling put air holes in the bags?
Yes, so we have to be sure to staple above the zip line.
If you join the club do you get the labels to print out?
It is something we are working hard on on the back end, so it will be included in the Club in the future, but as of right now, the labels are not ready yet.
@@FreezerMeals101 That's awesome! It's great that you ladies put this together. I plan on joining once I get my next check. I just found your channel today. Oh and thanks for responding 😊
You're so welcome! Glad you found us. Let me know if you have any other questions.
What does the 15% off day mean?
At our local grocery store, groceries are 15% off on the first Tuesday of every month.
I am trying to join the club and it won' let me. It says that an account already set up with my email. What should I do?
Hi! Please send an email to support@freezermeals101.com and we'll get you sorted. 😊
Also, if it thinks you already have an account, you can reset your password from the login page. Try that here: mealplan.freezermeals101.com/my-account/
You frequently say you think something will be good but how about a short video after you’ve both tried everything, especially the new recipes, reviewing the new recipes and your impressions/opinions????
That's a great idea! We're actually planning another mega session for a few weeks from now so for that one, we will do a follow up video of what we thought of the new experiment recipes. Thank you for the suggestion!
