What are your favourite recipes for cooking and then freezing?

Make a load of tea cakes. They freeze well.What are your favourite recipes for cooking and then freezing?
Vanilla home make Ice Cream! yummies:P~~~~What are your favourite recipes for cooking and then freezing?
ESPECIALLY BEANS AND TOMATO SAUCE
Make up quantities of lasgane sheets, bolognaise sauce, cheese sauce (all cooked) then pack them into individual containers for freezing
My favourite: cake, jelly and jam.
basic picadillo (chilli)
Basic casseroles, soups and stocks, made in batches and frozen in portions, all can have added ingredients to vary the flavour.
I love making my home made soup and then freezing in small containers. The soup contains a block of boiling meat in a pot with water and a stock cude bring to boil. Wash lentils and veg, what ever you like. I use a lot of carrots, turnip ect. And let it all simmer until it starts to go thick. I then take the beef out and break it up but i know some people who just through this beef out. Remember to leave to cool before freezing.
Chilli, spaghetti bolognaise, curry, casseroles, soups, ice cream for puddings.
home made soup
Home made macaroni cheese. 4 pints of white sauce (flour, butter, milk and mustard powder) made in the microwave a pint at a time with anything up to a kilo of grated mature cheese with about 550g of penne (cooked) - all bagged up. Will make twelve ordinary portions or nine large portions. Bag separately for easy use after thawing.
soups any kind pasta dises
lasagne.





I also make homemade stock (broth), and freeze it in small amounts for use in recipes.





I have had good luck with cheesecake too.
Zucchini Bread


Pumpkin Bread


Lasagna


Homemade Freezer Jams and Jellies


Bread Dough, then all you have to do is take it out of the freezer let it rise and bake it.
Chilli!!!!!
Anything with plenty of sauce, I always freeze bolognaise, stew, chilli, lasagne, paprika pork etc.
I've followed my mum tradition of making a huge shepherds pie and then portioning it into individual meals for the freezer. It is so miuch easier taking it out in the morning to defrost and just heat it up when you get home.
I mainly make lots of desserts and meat pies, lasagne, casseroles and freeze. These things are for emergency. Don't like frozen foods though. Fresh is always best!
BOLOGNAISE, CASSEROLES, SOUPS , STEWS, FRUIT
Water??
Beef and Carrot casserole
Irish stew. Before those veg and the best of left over meat go off, make a potful of stew, and freeze it in usable sized portions.
I make a Curry with a ';cook in'; sauce, add some extra veg, prepare rice separately and distribute into freezer boxes to freeze ready to microwave later.


The ';Mac';
Lasagna works well for this.
lasagna, and any kind of pasta which is cooked in the oven.


little octopus cooked with lentils, and small tomatoes (let me know if you need the recipe!)
Pasta bolognaise
I like to make soup from fresh urine and excrement, then freeze it for a day when I can't be bothered to cook.
THE SIMPLE MEALS ARE ALWAYS THE BEST. CHILLI, CURRY AND SPAGBOL. WE COOK UP A STUPID AMOUNT EVERY NOW AND THEN, HAVE ONE MEAL FROM IT, THEN PUT THE REST IN EITHER SANDWICH BAGS OR CHINESE TAKEAWAY TUBS THAT WE KEEP FOR JUST THAT THING. MAKES LATE NIGHT RETURNS HOME SIMPLE FOR A GREAT MEAL. EVEN BOLOGNAISE ON TOAST, WITH WORCESTER SAUCE SPLASHED ALL OVER IT, WITH A GLASS OF RED.





IN FACT, IVE GOT MY JUICES FLOWING, WHERES THE FREEZER?!!!!
sausages and mash,,,, mmmmmmmmmmmmmm yummy
chilli con carne
