frozen foods in the freezer drawer

What’s in Jody’s Freezer?

Recently I wrote about the benefits of processed food. One type of processed food that can help with meal planning and stretching the food budget is frozen food.  For the next four weeks Katy, Christine, Justine and I are going to share with you some of the foods you can find in our freezers and how we include them in our meal planning.

VEGETABLE FRIED RICE

Vegetable Fried Rice

This time of year always starts to feel hectic to me. Especially this year, as a senior in college, I am overwhelmed with the thought of graduation and moving onto the next step of my life. When life gets a little hectic, I want simple, filling meals to power me through my weeks. This vegetable fried rice does just that. Using staple ingredients, it is easy to throw together in a pinch. I like to make this recipe at the end of my week and use up any leftover vegetables I have in the fridge.
