I am doing a bake of brown rice, chicken breast, peas, celery, bell peppers
and peas. Also contains olive oil, butter, salt, pepper, parsley, thyme and just a tiny bit of oregano. Cooked everything ahead of time. It's just heating through now. Used some onion free chicken broth powder to season the rice and veggies. Smells really good. If there is time, I will likely bake a tube of crescent rolls. Got a lot of them for cheap at Walmart. On second thought... Whole wheat cheese biscuits might be better. Don't want to mess up a healthy meal with poofy fluff. |

So many choices on Amazon! == I guess it depends how many you are cooking for. Ours is a 3.2 litre but I am cooking just for 2 of us. I had my eye on a Philips or this one, The Power Air Fryer made from Tristar Products, had a good discount so ... I am very pleased with it. Ask Terry as well, what he has. |

I have a supply of rectangular reuseable one pint, and one quart plastic tubs... stack in the freezer like bricks leaving just enough room for air to circulate... some I wash by hand, some go into the dishwasher. No wasted Zip-Locs. My tubs nest so no wasted storage space... even the lids nest. |

I use them for sous vide, mixing dough, and even storage. They make my life easier and better. The one gallon size suck. They are too large for most items. The one quart size is very often too small. However they don't make a two quart size. I find Zip-Locs a big rip off. I'll change my mind when they make a two quart size... but they never will. They get you to waste money buying the expensive too large gallon size. |

But I also keep the cheese well wrapped inside the bag. The bags can be washed and reused a few times. Something like tomato sauce in a freezer bag? I can't see being able to re-use the bag after storing acidic tomato sauce in it. I have stackable Rubbermaid containers I use for nearly all my refrigerated and frozen leftovers. Lots of different sizes. They don't take up much room. I wouldn't trust the seal on a freezer bag when storing liquid. Does it have an actual zipper tab? Or do you have to rely on Yellow + Green = Blue to make sure you've got the bag sealed? This might be where a Food Saver comes into play. Me, I just use reliable, reusable, washable, stackable freezer containers. :) Jill |

I fill each quart Ziploc freezer bag with 16 ounces of sauce. I lay them flat, overlapping on a couple of half sheet pans. I put the pans in the deep freeze until everything is frozen solid. Then I use a 2 or 3 three gallon zip bags to corral all the bags of spaghetti sauce. Everything is flat, everything is frozen and kept together. Once years ago I had a couple of bags from the same box leak immediately as I filled them. I called the company and they sent me coupons for a couple of free boxes of bags. Janet US |

I need the gallon size to mix bread dough and shortcrust. All the other sizes are too small. I go through a lot of them and would never think of going back to mixing up these things in a bowl. I am one happy camper. |

I used 'Food Savers' to sous vide them and then into the freezer. |
