Recently came across a 99 cent/lb roast purchase. We paid $11 instead of $59!
Way too much for the 2 of us (in a tiny house) so I dry rubbed and baked the entire thing. After letting it cool, I cut it into 5 two pound-ish slices (chunks) and froze them.
Took one up yesterday to thaw and after slicing some for lunch/sandwiches 🥪 , we'll have the rest tonight with asparagus & porcini risotto. I can throw an amazing dinner together in 45 minutes!
Anything left will be our homemade cold cuts for future lunches.
Any time I have fresh fruits or veggies nearing their end time (particularly kale, spinach, berries, and bananas) I freeze them to use for future smoothies, cooking etc. It's a lovely way to not waste them and then I don't have to buy the frozen versions as often.
I freeze Parmesan rinds when they’re at the end and use them in soup!

Yay, freezer!
Freezer leftovers. What will they think of next?
