Freezer cooking saves the day!
Last night, according to my menu plan, I had planned to roast a whole chicken that had been residing in my freezer for some time. But somehow, I managed to forget to defrost it, and this fact didn't dawn on me until 5:00! What to do?
I opened up my freezer and found the package of Crystal's Crockpot Italian Chicken that I had cooked during Freezer Cooking Days. I defrosted it in the microwave, boiled up a box of 3 cent whole wheat pasta, shredded the chicken and served it on top of the pasta. Yum, great meal!
I'll be doing Freezer Cooking Days again the weekend of March 27-28 in preparation for Passover. Stay tuned!

Freezer cooking is a blessing. Sounds like a yummy recipe too!
I should really do something like this! I hate when I forget to take something out of the freezer to cook!!
Thanks for linking up and have a GREAT weekend!
Couldn't agree more. So nice to have meals ready for "emergencies."
