Hi. My DD is in college(1st year) and living in the dorms. Mondays and Wednesdays she gets out of class at 7pm and its already dark. On Tuesday she gets has late class and doesn't get back to dorms until 10pm. She has a meal plan but doesn't go on late nights unless she find someone to go with. Her friends usually go earlier. The eating place isn't to close to her dorm so walking alone isn't a good idea. Once the time changes it might change that she will go depending on if its dark.
I wanted to meal prep some meals for her and take it when we visit. I know it will be good for a few days. My question is freezing meals. I need advice on best way to do it and microwaving it.
Here's what I'm planning
-cooked butter garlic shrimp seasoned with paprika, salt, pepper and dash of red chili powder
-spaghetti
-shrimp scampi
-lasagna
-grilled chicken with roasted veggies or pasta with alfredo sauce
If I wanted to freeze the meals, do I cook, then freeze, then have dd thaw out in fridge then microwave? #2 or just prep the stuff uncooked, then freeze, thaw out in fridge, then have DD microwave? Whats the best way. There's only microwave in dds room
any other good meal prep meals that will be good for a few days in fridge or frozen and cooked by microwave?
