Pinned It, Did It Monday {cooking}

pinned itGood Monday morning to you all!  Welcome to Pinned It, Did It Monday where I tell you about something I attempted to actually do from Pinterest, instead of just spending time “pinning” things. 
I’m just going to tell you about one thing today!  But I’m excited about it.  Many of my friends do freezer cooking.  In a nutshell, it means you get your kitchen really dirty for a short length of time and prep a ton of meals at once that go in your freezer.  And ta-da more kiddo time instead of cooking on a day to day basis.  I’ve wanted to do this for awhile, I just haven’t.  So when I saw this from Six Sisters Stuff, I was sold.  I have not tried a single recipe from them that I haven’t enjoyed. pin #1 Picture I Pinned:

  2. Love some of these recipes! I have a Hamburger n Beans recipe which I throw extra beans into, then bake half and freeze the rest. (1 pound hamburger, 3-4 large cans of baked beans, a little barbeque sauce and a little brown sugar. bake at 350 for 30 minutes). I also put chicken in the crock pot with salsa, shred, make enchiladas with some of the chicken, and freeze the rest for enchiladas later.
