Save Time & Money With ‘Cook Once, Eat Twice’ Method Of Cooking

by Texas Homesteader ~ 

“COOK ONCE EAT TWICE” method of cooking means homemade meals are a snap to enjoy now & freeze some for later, and less cleanup too!

The idea is simple – cook LOTS of a specific main entrée and enjoy it at mealtime that day. Then portion out & freeze the rest for quick meals later.

It’s been a game-changer for me.

Cook-Once, Eat-Twice method of cooking is simple - cook many servings of a main entrée and freeze extras for ready-made meals later. #TexasHomesteader

Although you can't freeze fresh eggs in the shell, there is an easy way to preserve eggs for future use by freezing. #TexasHomesteader

Homemade Convenience Food! I made breakfast burritos for the freezer so I could make sure none of our pastured eggs go to waste. #TexasHomesteader
