3 Freezer Meals – In The Kitchen: Episode 26

This week on Sunday Night Live with Ruth Ann, over on my Facebook Page, we prepared 3 freezer meals.

  • Orange Chicken
  • Sweet & Sour Chicken
  • Sweet & Sour Steak

Check out the Live Prep of these meals. I will be adding more photos of the prepared meals as we eat these meals.

Remember:  Label your bags with the recipe name, cooking time and what you wish to serve it with.
