Do you do "once a month cooking" by cooking food for the whole month and freezing it? What are your recipes and tips?

A true "Once a Month" session would cook enough meals for a month but many people adapt it to their own style. If chicken is on sale they may buy enough to make 21 meals of chicken and get those in the freezer. They do the same when beef is on sale, or pork etc.By doing this, you by the meat at the lowest cost making the bulk cooking even more economical.

Another way to bulk cook to be able to get to the freezer food meals is to double or triple every meal you make. If you cook a casserole, cook a second one at the same time. This lets you share the ingredients buying larger quantity at lower cost hopefully.

Put the second one in the freezer and use it in a few weeks. One of the tips I would offer about Once a Month Cooking or any bulk cooking means would be this. Don't take a bunch of new recipes and make multiple of the same dish for the freezer until you are sure your family likes the item.

If you make 5 of the same new meal and everyone hates it when you first serve it, who will eat the other four? I also bulk cook ground meats. I cook 20 to 30 pounds at a time and freeze them in individual meal portions, this lets me do things like tacos, spaghetti, etc in a quicker amount of time because the meat is already cooked.

I use my own recipes for bulk cooking. I do this when making soups, casseroles and side dishes. I make and freeze ahead for future meals.

For left over meats I freeze the meat in useable quantities to put in another meal.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
