I freeze anything it's possible to freeze and come back to it later. Backstock!

I hear you - my mantra is: "The freezer is your friend!" I'm fortunate enough to be able to fit a deep freeze in my garage, so I'm able to cook the amount the recipe calls for and then put the leftovers in the freezer.

I also bought a Seal-A-Meal not too long ago. I head to Sam's Club or Costco and buy meats in bulk. When I get home, I repackage and seal them in smaller portions, and then stick them in the deep freeze. I find that food does not go to waste as fast, since the individual packages keep fresher in the freezer. It was a great investment!
