Frozen Veggies

I love frozen veggies! My freezer is full of them. Besides eating them on their own, I also toss them into canned soups to give them more bulk and flavor. I do the same for salads. Often, I’ll cook more than I need so I have leftovers for quick add-ins to other meals.

You get it. I throw veggies into everything! This one is simple.

For folks who garden, I’ve watched one or two neat videos on how to freeze your own stuff, particularly corn. Look for videos on how to handle/process your vegetables and fruit. Most importantly, read the comments to find out if what is suggested actually works. Sometimes the people in the comments come up with improvements on the methods which are genuinely useful.

Take note that what I’ve said here has two layers. I’ve talked about how to use store bought frozen vegetables and how to look into making use of what you might have grown. I did that on purpose. Often, I feel like people think if they don’t do something from scratch, then it isn’t authentic. Phooey on that!!! If tossing in a handful of veggies into a pre-made mix makes you feel like a champion chef, then go for it! Life is about what works for you and makes you feel good about who you are, not anyone else. Jump in and enjoy yourself at any level!
