Pre-planning meals: Freeze vs Chill

i freeze sausage soup it does well but i do not put carbs in it before i freeze it as the pasta or barley will turn to mush when you thaw it cook it in microwave, spagettii sauce with meatballs freezes good, lasagna meat or cheese freezes nice most things i keep frozen one or two months then they become unknown blobs of food in zip lock baggies or rubbermaid totes or foil covered unknowns in freezer,, we tend to cook one pot meals then portion them out into one serving containers as we freeze them, frig time for a food depends on your frig settings on how cold you are keeping food at factory settings or colder...usually after a week you get tired of looking at whatever left overs are sitting on shelf...LOL...before it turns green and starts to walk around in there..we just bought a seal a meal machine so the freezer life will be longer as less air means less freezer burn...good luck with your pre frozen meals i use a lot of zip lock freezer bags and double bag everything...you might want to date them with a sharpie pen too...
