Very excited about our new chest freezer coming on Thursday. Please share your best tips for organising our lives / batch cooking / xmas preparations with this new toy. I'm keen to understand:

  • what type of record keeping do you use so you know what's in there
  • best labelling options
  • best containers for freezing batch cooking
- good cook from frozen meal options (beyond fish fingers)

Any watchouts?

Mine isn't a chest freezer, but I batch cook and then write on the door what is in the freezer in white board pen, along with the number of portions eg
Spaghetti Bolognese 1 2 3 4
Beef stew 1 2 3 etc
Then when I take a portion out, I wipe off the last number. That way it's easy to see what's in the freezer and how many portions. I also line it up with the drawers so I know which drawer I've put stuff in too.

Why do you freeze your sheets?

Do you freeze your blankets, pillowcases and quilt covers, too?
