“I have been following Money Saving Mom® for over a year now, and I have long been curious about the concept of Freezer Cooking. As I was creating my meal plan for this week, I looked on Crystal’s website for some Freezer Cooking Recipes. It was then that I realized that her recipes were not all that different from recipes that I already use. This was a new idea to me!”

Have you ever tried freezer cooking before? What were some of the pros/cons that you observed?
I love the philosophy behind your blog. I found you from MSM and I am in love with your blog. I need to count my blessings more often, thank you for this reminder.
Thank you! It’s really therapy for me. I have a critical nature…lending itself to comparing and complaining. So here I choose joy and gratitude. It’s been a great discipline for me. It’s changed my whole outlook, and my interactions with my family. I want to always remember how richly blessed I am. 🙂
Hi Jessica! I enjoyed your post on MoneySavingMom . I love freezer cooking. I’ve been doing it as long as I’ve been married (15 years). I do small batches and one type of food at a time. I also freeze baked good and mixes for making more than one type of dish.
3 Books I count on…
1. The Complete Make a Mix Cookbook
2. Make Your Own Groceries (I think this is out of print but you can get used copies on Amazon)
3. Taste of Home Freezer Pleasers (the latest addition to my cookbook collection after discovering it in the library).
Freezer cooking is the busy mom’s best friend…one of them anyway
Thank you! Those books sound really useful. I’ll have to check them out! 🙂
