Dinner’s Just a Thaw Away with The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Easy Freezer Meals.
Let’s face it, and it’s far easier to double a recipe and make two at the same time than repeat the meal later in the week. Life, unfortunately, doesn’t have brakes, and we have weeks where we spend more time in our car than on our couch. Short on time? Forget the drive-thru and open the freezer thanks to The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Easy Freezer Meals.

Recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner through desserts plus freezer cooking essentials to ensure success.

My husband loves Sunday breakfast. I don’t love the task always. Now, I can plan ahead and freeze a portion of the meal and make it a meal to remember in less time than I’ve been spending. Page 53 has a recipe for Cinnamon Swirl French Toast. I can pay homage to our Irish roots with Irish Style Oatmeal with Cranberries (page. 57). Welcome guests with Cheese Blintzes (page 61). Warm hubby’s employees with Orange Blueberry Muffins (page 64) and so much more.
With the Holiday’s quickly approaching, I’m going to be a superstar with an appetizer tray of epic variety: Crab-stuffed Mushrooms (page 80). Mini-Samosas (page 82), Artichoke Dip (page 87), and Buffalo Style Hot Wings (page 92).
The book then moves into dinner desserts—breads, Seafood, Soups, and Sauces, offering variety for any picky eaters.
