Here are some quick freezer tips I live by:
– Let cooked food cool completely before freezing so you don’t trap steam and form ice crystals.
– Freeze flat in zip bags, then “file” them upright so you can actually see dinner options.
– Label everything with the name, date, and basic reheating notes because future you will forget.
– Keep sauces on the side and toss at the end so breaded things stay crisp; the air fryer is your best friend for bringing back crunch.
– Give items space on a sheet pan so they brown instead of steam, and portion into family-size or single servings depending on your week.
– Thaw in the fridge overnight when you can, reheat covered until hot, then uncover for a few minutes to re-crisp.
– Finish with something fresh: lemon, herbs, or a bagged salad.
