Well hello there.
You here for another great Lazy Mom Tip?
Let me just reach into my Lazy Mom goodie bag and see what I've got for ya.....
How many of you have a man in your house that likes to grill out?
How many of you have a man in your house that likes to grill out way too much food?
How many of you have a man in your house that likes to grill out way too much food and then it sits in the refrigerator until you have to throw it out weeks later?
Cause I do.
Lazy Dad likes to grill out when we have people over. And then because people are over he grills out WAY too much food. And then that food sits and sits and sits in the refrigerator. And even though we reheat it for leftovers for a few days, there is inevitably STILL food sitting in the refrigerator and it gets thrown out.
Well, I've wised up since then.
Now when he grills out way too much food, I put some of it in the fridge for leftovers and I chop the rest of it up for the freezer!
Especially chicken! Because chicken can be used later in a Lazy Chicken Pot Pie or to make Lazy Chicken Pasta Salad or in Lazy Shredded Chicken Sandwiches or even in Mmm-chiladas!
So don't throw out that perfectly good grilled chicken! Shred it, cube it, slice it, dice it! However you do it, just freeze it!!
And I know there are lots of you out there that are in the whole freezer cooking thang. (It's a thang instead of a thing, right?) So share with us some of your best freezer cooking techniques in the comments section below!
And as always, send me your great Lazy Mom Tips!

If you are having leftover Hamburgers you can cube those up for Hamburger Wraps...My husband loves buffalo sauced burgers with blue cheese, but they are so messy to eat, so now I make wraps...way lazier for me! Or you could chop 'em up real fine make bacon cheeseburger soup! Mmmm...I love me some leftovers :D
ReplyDeleteI was just wishing I had some leftover grilled chicken to add to my lunch today!
ReplyDeleteThe same can be said about ham. My hubby loves to buy a big ham every so often and then loses interest after a few days, so I freeze it for soup and other meals.
ReplyDeletethere are no longer left overs in the house now that we have a 6'2" 17yr old boy.
ReplyDeleteI make 2 lbs of hamburger meat when we make tacos.
ReplyDeleteWe eat tacos one night, then the next, use the extra meat on rice. Add some cheese, mix it all up...
...call it dinner.
