Stouffer's makes some great frozen entrees that are both convenient and reasonably-priced - and they stack well in the freezer!

Can't wait to see Sam when he makes his arrival!!!

Oh but try not to eat much that is gassy like broccoli and cabbage. It's hard on baby tummies when you breast feed. Also, about half my momma friends have to cut out dairy the first four mos so just warning you that it might happen.

Enchiladas/burritos- including breakfast. Sometimes I make breakfast burritos for dinner (tortilla, scrambled eggs, cheese, bacon or sasuage, chives - roll up and heat) and double to freeze them. Wrap indiv in plastic wrap and stick in a bag in the freezer. To heat, unwrap and cover with a just moist paper towel and microwave for a min. Easy to eat w one hand on the go or mid of night feedings. Also, if you have fav crockpot meals, make them but in zip baggies. Then freeze. They freeze flat so don't take up much space. The day before you want to use, defrost in fridge. The dump into your crockpot as normal. And just about every soup I make, I freeze in indiv servings. Make a great lunch or dinner when I am tired and lazy.

I clearly have a love affair going on w my freezer.

I promise to ship your stuff and Cmas gifts in the next day or two. I was waiting for the Cmas part to finally arrive so I could finish it.

I LOVE enchiladas: http://www.copykat.com/2011/05/23/chicken-cream-cheese-enchiladas/
I use a recipe almost identical to this one and it usually fills 1-9x13 or 2-8x8 pans. I just put it all together, pour the sauce over the top and put 'em in the freezer for later. If you don't have chili powder or cumin, 1 tsp (or more!) of taco seasoning is perfect. You can also sub out the sour cream for non-fat plain yogurt and non-fat cream cheese holds up great, too!

That's smart. I wish I did that before Landon was born. We have family bring over plenty of meals, but it would have been nice to have freezer stuff once those ran out. We did a lot of takeout which isn't the healthiest

Thanks, Charbelle. Yep that reminds me to add those to my grocery list! I also plan to get a few of those Bertolli (and the like) meals to have on hand. They have some good ones that are pretty low-cal and not TOO overloaded with sodium. We like to add in extra frozen veggies to make them a little more hearty. Good stuff!
