Today I made meal bags for the week. What is a meal bag? I'm so glad you asked..
A meal bag is a ziplock baggie with all the ingredients for a meal in it. You do all the prep work for the meal as you put it in the baggie so that when you make dinner, everything is in one place, and all the prep work is done.
Here are the meal bags I made:
#1 - Stir fry over rice. I took Stir fry meat out of the freezer and put it in a small baggie. I added a marinade, which it will soak in while it thaws. Then I cooked up some rice and put it in another baggie. Then I put the 2 baggies together. Waa-laa, all I have to do is heat up the rice, cook the steak, and add some veggies. I made this tonight and it was yummy!
#2 Cheeseburger Magic: First I made the dry mix. Then, I cooked the ground beef. I put those in a baggie, and threw in a can of biscuits. I will add some veggies and it will be a complete meal.
#3 Pork Chop Bake: I took Pork Chops out of the freezer. I put the stuffing mix, the cream soup and the cheddar cheese in a baggie. I will add sweet potatoes and another vegetable.
# 4 BBQ Chicken. I put chicken in a baggie to thaw in BBQ sauce. I will put them in the crockpot and add some more BBQ sauce. I also washed, dried and wrapped 4 baking potatoes in foil and put them in a bag. I put those bags together and will add a veggie to this when I make it.
