Hi guys, I'm Abby, welcome back to my channel in today's video, this will be the second part of my previous frozen

meals

video. These are seven more frozen meal casserole dishes that you can double and have 14

meals

for about $100 and keep in your

freezer

. I love having these on hand. At least I use one a week when I don't feel like cooking. They're also great to have on hand when you're having a baby like me and you know you're not going to. for cooking and is also great to give to people when they have babies. What I like to do is cook in two batches, so I do this at least once a week.

I pick something I'm making, make two, and save it for later and it helps me save money on my regular weekly grocery budget. These are here to help make your life easier when things get really crazy like mine. Be sure to stay tuned for next week's video. show you how to cook on racks and how to use meals like this in your

freezer

to plan your weekly meals on a really slim budget, like I did today, $30 at the store, that's all I spent because I was using my pantry freezer and shelf anyway keep watching let's get into the video the first meal is chicken spaghetti this is my personal favorite but all you need is 2 pounds of spaghetti boil it as usual.

I like to cut mine in half because it's a lot easier with the kids when they're already half the size they should be, it's a lot easier to cut them and it's easier to stir them, so I put a little bit of butter in a pan and I'm going to roast some bell peppers and onion. use like an onion or a couple of bell peppers, whatever you want, but I just like to roast them and baste your pan for each meal, so this calls for two cans of cream of chicken soup for each dish, so in total You would need four and me.

I'm going to add my bell peppers and onions that I just browned just half and half and then I'm going to use my Rotel and this is my favorite part, it makes it a little spicy and then I'm going to shred 2 pounds of chicken so they're actually chicken thighs, you can use chicken breast whatever you want. Sometimes I break it up with a blender or a hand mixer, sometimes I do it with a knife and fork, but it depends on your taste. now I'm going to add my spaghetti noodles that are cooked and I'm going to have to stir them all together very, very well, super evenly as best as you can and then this is the best part when you put basically a block. of cream cheese on each plate and then add the chicken and stir it in and everything melts the cream cheese, it's glorious, absolutely delicious, so once you stir it in, you're done and you can top it with cheddar cheese and throw it in. in the oven wonderful, very good, the next dish is pizza casserole and my kids loved this meal and it is probably the easiest meal in this video.

You just boil 2 pounds of noodles, whatever your choice. I'm using rotini noodles and I'm going to spread them out into my pans and then I'm going to pour spaghetti sauce of your choice, it can be traditional marinara meat sauce, whatever, but I'm going to put a jar in each pan and then I'm going to add a little bit. of water to the jar and put as much excess as you can in there. I'm adding a little oregano for a little flavor. Now I'm going to top with mozzarella cheese and now I'm going to add PE pepper. as much as I can and this is done, that's it, it's super simple, it reminds me of pizza, obviously, hello, the pepperonis, but if you want to go with it, I'm going to pour in my rotini noodles that I was cooking on the stove and I'm going to pour a jar of spaghetti sauce into each pan and then I'll add water back to the jar to make sure I get the whole pan.

Oh my goodness, my husband loved this one as we ate it. practically a whole pan for one meal. I couldn't stop myself anyway, you need two cans of cream of mushroom soup in each pan. I cooked 2 pounds of ground beef, drain the fat and mix it in and then on the stove I'm cooking two pounds. of egg noodles so a pound in each and then the best part is the french onion sauce oh my gosh this was amazing give it a good stir and then you're going to make another jar of french onion sauce and put it in the other. skillet, this is like a Thanksgiving dish because of the French onions, but the French onion dip was like a cream cheese, hands down the best food in this video, in my opinion, now you top it with French onions. and I'm going to get a whole jar of them in one, spread it out and then put the other one in the other pan.

Now you have to be careful when you cook them again because you don't want them to burn, so if you want to put them. foil on top when you cook it you can or you just have to see it but that's it and the last one is a breakfast casserole. Now I know I just said the other one was great, but this one was so amazing, but I'm skipping two. green peppers and an onion with butter and I'm going to use hash browns and place them in the molds. Now I'm making a large 9x13 like a smaller 9x3, not really a 9x3 and then I have a little 8 by 8 square pan that I wanted to use.

I spread them there. I cooked 2 pounds of sausage that I had in the freezer and mixed it with the onions and bell peppers, now on top of my hash browns, I'm cutting two. blocks of diced cream cheese, now you can mix them into your hash browns which can get messy or you can just put them on top like I do and stir them later, so now I'm going to put the meat and onion on top. mix and now I'm going to top it with cheese now looking back I wish I had put a lot more cheese on it but I think I was just trying to have a light hand because it has a lot of cream cheese but not only Go for it the sharp cheddar cheese also has a amazing flavor.

In a separate bowl, I'm going to mix half a cup of flour and then two cups of milk and whisk it together to make sure there are no lumps and this will help. thicken the egg mixture so it's not so runny, but now I'm going to break 24 eggs, so I shortened this clip because obviously you don't want to see me break 24 eggs, but after I do I'll come out. My hand mixer to make the process much faster and I'm going to mix all of this together very, very well, without any egg clumps, if possible. Now, once the eggs have been mixed together pretty well, you can basically add the flour and milk mixture. ready and ready to go in the oven now, every time I cook it, I like to leave it like that and then when I serve it, I like to mix it to spread the cream cheese.
