For some reason to me sometimes pre-cooked meats frozen don't always taste the best coming out of the freezer, especially chicken (unless it's baked smothered in gravy). Personally, I have a very small place, and not a lot freezer space. For freezing I like to freeze fresh strawberries and asparagus, and some others which can take up a lot of the freezer space. But MaryStella @Oberon46 , like you, I want to do some complete made freezer items, or if I hear some good ideas, canned items. For one, I'd like to do a large batch of lazagna which I haven't don't yet. Then cut up in hunk size pieces to place in freezer boxes. Then I can have a quick summer lunch or even evening meal of lazagna and all I have to do it pop it in the microwave, and have a salad and bread on the side. I often pre-cook (fry) ground beef with salt and onion and freeze it in a large gallon size slider freezer bags. I can then take out portion to make a quick spagetti with sauce (which I hope to can some of my own in the upcoming future). But then you have to remember I'm usually only cooking for one, though I enjoy leftovers for two or three meals.
