Product Description

Every recipe tells you what is in it.Most freezer cookbooks tell you how long a bag keeps. This one also tells you what it costs you: calories, protein, carbs, fiber, fat and sodium on every single recipe, calculated from the USDA food database rather than estimated.And every storage time and safe temperature in it comes from the published US government charts, reproduced inside so you never have to look them up mid-cook.What is inside100 make-ahead recipes, none of them longer than 10 ingredients — 20 of them pure dump-and-go: everything into one bag, nothing on the stove until the day you eat itEight chapters: chicken, beef and turkey, meatless, breakfast, soups and stews, dump-and-go slow cooker, assemble and bake, bases and saucesEvery recipe headed with the same six facts: freeze raw or freeze cooked, servings, prep, cook, how long it keeps, and the temperature it has to reachA one-day plan that fills the freezer for a month: twelve dinners, 69 servings, four and a half hours, with the shopping list added up from the twelve recipes themselvesThe six rules that decide whether a freezer meal survives, and a troubleshooting chapter arranged by what you are looking atTwo indexes: by ingredient, and by freezer method — 51 you freeze raw, 49 you freeze cookedPrintable labels and a free nutrition calculatorA bag with no label is a bag nobody eats.
