It has been a month since we did a batch cooking day. So I’ve been doubling some recipes to stash in the freezer to beef up our supply. You never know when a day might go crazy so it is good to have a few of things ready to go quickly!
A super easy one that gets gobbled up here is Chicken Tetrazini. I like it because as long as I have Colby cheese on hand then I will have all the other staples available.
This recipe is one that I make two and freeze the extra one. I like to have one on hand to take to a sick friend, a family with a new baby or just to bless some one. It isn’t spicy so it appeals to many—besides who can resist cheesy noodles!
Chicken Tetrazini
12-14 oz of noodles—any variety
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup milk
8 oz Colby cheese shredded
2 cups chicken cooked and diced
16 oz bag of frozen peas & carrots(optional)
Boil the noodles until slightly under done. While noodles are cooking, mix soup & milk in a large bowl. Drain noodles & add to soup mixture. Add chicken & 1/2 of the cheese. If you want to add the vegetables it should be done at this point. Mix well & put in a 9 x 13 casserole dish. Top with the remaining cheese. Bake on 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes or until hot & bubbly.
Pair with a green lettuce salad & you have a quick easy meal!

I went back through this post to some of your other freezer recipes and I must say it's been a great blessing! I'm always on the lookout for easy freezer meals and I love that you use homemade BBQ sauce and teriyaki sauce - we have an HFCS-free kitchen and the price of healthy BBQ sauce in the store is astronomical! I'm also planning to try your enchilada recipe, minus the cheese since we're dairy-free for our daughter - easily adaptable recipes are the best!
ReplyDeleteI am making this recipe tonight! I will post about it and link back to you! Hope it's yummy!
ReplyDeleteYou have some great ideas going on here. I'm giving that lemon chicken a try very soon. Thanks for sharing it.
