Question about freezing foods

[bigwolf]

hi all:

new member here....

I have a question about freezing foods. One of my biggest problems is lack
of time during weekdays as far as food preparation goes. A friend suggested
preparing meals for the week over the weekend, storing them in meal sized
bags and freezing them...so on the weekdays all you have to do is take the
meals out of the freezer, thaw, reheat and eat.

What I am looking for is if people already do something like this...what
kind of foods do you cook and freeze? any recommendations? any pointers
and things to watch out for? My regular diet includes lots of rice, potatoes,
eggs, chicken, veggies, dairy products.

Any and all advice is much appreciated. Oh yes, my goal is to gain about
4 lbs of muscle mass a month...i am currently around 163 lbs and 182 cms
tall...a bit on the slim side and i need to lose a bit of fat too.

thanks

red meat and chicken can easily be frozen

you dont even need to freeze it all. meat once cooked keeps for a long time when refirgerated. You can keep chicken for 4 days refrigerated no problem.

you can get away with leaving it in the frig to eat the next day or two then you can cook up some more.
