Description
How do you stock a freezer with enough food to last for weeks, in a single day? I did exactly that for my best friend who is about to have her first baby (with a few meals left for me). In this video I'm showing you every single thing I made, how I packaged it, and the exact order I cooked everything so nothing went to waste.
Here's everything that went into the freezer:
🍖 Slow roasted lamb shoulder that falls apart and works for three different meals
🥩 Beef short rib ragù slow, rich, and better after a week in the freezer
🥔 Potato and leek soup simple, freezes beautifully, perfect for a tired weeknight
🍗 Chicken soup the one you want waiting for you when everything feels hard
🫙 Chicken bone broth a nourishing and gut friendly base for so many of our meals
🥬 Pickled cabbage because a fully stocked freezer still needs something bright and acidic
🫓 3 ingredient yoghurt flatbreads freeze them, toast them straight from frozen. Done.
There's something about cooking for someone else that makes you really think about what they'll actually reach for on a tired Tuesday night. These are the meals I'd want waiting for me!
