Freezing Food in Individual Servings
 

After your food has been prepared, or after a meal where you have left over food, divide the food into individual servings so that it freezes and thaws quickly and evenly. Freshly cooked foods should be allowed to cool to room temperature before preparing them for freezing. Putting still-hot foods into the freezer can cause partially frozen foods to thaw or raise them to room temperature which could cause spoiling or alter the taste or texture of the food.

The portions you divide the food into should be the same as what you want to use when taking them out of the freezer. For example, if you are freezing something like spaghetti or pasta for school or work lunches, choose a container that will fit into the lunch bag or lunch box so that you can easily remove the container from the freezer and go.

Make sure the food container can seal out the air and protect the food from freezer burn or collecting ice on it in order to preserve the "just-cooked" tastes and textures. There are many types of food containers or wrapping available in your grocery store that are designed for freezer use.

This simple tip can easily save you time and money for just a few minutes of preparation. Enjoy!
