Large batches of food to freeze are like stock, soup, spaghetti sauce,
chili, meatloaf, etc. Sometimes, I'll freeze an entire 3-4 ingredient meal
(like a homemade tv dinner).
Pancakes are good for freezing. I don't make them often but when I do I
usually make a double batch. I'll cook some for the occasional "breakfast
for dinner" thing...along with a baked potato, fried eggs, toast and maybe
some bacon or sausage. The next day, I'll cook the rest of the pancake mix
and freeze them in the tupperware bowls with lids. Microwaved down the
road, they are just as good as fresh cooked, imo.
