I usually make Beef Stew, Cottage Pie etc which freeze really well but has anyone any great recipes (which don't involve Michelin Star status cooking) that I can make over the next few days and that will freeze well.

Will eat most things just not a fan of Lamb.

spag bol (well not the pasta!)
chilli
soups

in fact most things freeze ok...i have frozen roast dinners before now !!(in separate containers)

Tillyscoutsmum · 29/01/2009 12:01

Fish pie
Risotto
Chilli
Pasta sauces
Most stew/casserole things - sausage & bean, chicken & chorizo, coq au vin type things
Curries
Pizzas

Lasagne
Curries

I would be tempted to make up a huge amount of mince bolognaise and freeze it in separate containers. You can defrost what you need and either add pasta, mashed potatoes or rice.

Cauliflower cheese
Soups
Shepherd's pie
Fish pie
Pizza (you have made)
Spag bol
Lasagne

Jacket pots are great meals that don;t need you to slave over them and you can add spag bol, baked beans and cheese

Thanks everyone, my pg brain has obliterated all knowledge of food I can make.

Agree re bolognaise sauce, it can be used for quite a few different meals.

I am going to go out shopping and buy twice as much as I need and batch cook over the weekend.

I buy the take away foil packets and then write on the top what is inside/when I made it ect.

Apple crumbles are good, bread and butter puds etc

muppet, where do you buy the takeaway packets from?

pyscho - they are probably all the recipes I will make. Now I just have to make them.
