Hello! I apologize for my absence. I've been under the weather, and I'm still recovering ... but that has made these freezer-cooking bags even more invaluable around my house! I have been unable to really do much, but throwing the prepped bags into the crock-pot has made it a little easier on my family while I'm laid up!
What you've missed that's new:
For each recipe you simply put all ingredients into a gallon zip-lock bag and freeze. When you're ready to cook, just place the bag into the refrigerator the night before and in the morning, dump contents of bag into crock-pot and cook on low for 6-7 hours or high for 4 hours.
Maple-Dijon Chicken: Yummy!
1.5 pounds chicken thighs (skinless, bone in or out)
1/2 cup dijon mustard
1/4 cup real maple syrup
1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
Balsamic Drumsticks: Very good - and my husband and son would grab the leftovers straight from the fridge cold for lunch or snack!
6-8 drumsticks, skinless
3 tbsp oil (recipe calls for coconut, but I used extra virgin olive oil)
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
3 tbsp tamari
1/2 to 1 tbsp honey
Applesauce BBQ Pork (or Chicken): The sweet apple and tangy BBQ was delicious! We used pork, but you can sub chicken breasts if you prefer!
4 boneless porn loin cuts
1/2 tsp pepper
1 tbsp olive oil
2/3 cup chunky applesauce
2/3 cup spicy/tangy BBQ sauce
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp chili powder
Happy Cooking!
