Freezing Tips

• Eliminate air from bags before freezing, but leave some room for liquids to expand.
• Place the rectangular foil pans on the shelf first, then put zip top freezer bags on top of them.
• Keep your freezer at 0F or lower. This is the optimal temperature for retaining nutritional content, flavor and texture.
• For best results, store frozen meals for no more than 60 days.
• Dont freeze 2-3 of your meals. Keep them in the refrigerator to have this week.

Thawing Tips

• For best results, thaw in the refrigerator for 1-3 days.
• Do not go directly from freezer to oven, unless cooking instructions specifically call for this.
• Never thaw dishes on the counter top. This supports bacterial growth and can lead to food borne illnesses.

Cooking Tips

• Follow cooking instructions as provided. Internal temperature of all foods need to reach at least 165F. See below if you need an extra copy.
• Take this opportunity to check the spice level and add a dash of spice or salt if needed.
• Give it a good stir. Gravies and sauces may separate during freezing.
• Do not cook or microwave food in the zip top freezer bag.
