Hey, it's a new school year! Sorry I have not been posting pictures, but there should be some next week.
Today's post is about how to use your freezer to make mornings less hectic. Remember the cute little square silicone cupcake liners that you separate food with? Well, I don't use them for baking because they discolor, but they work great for freezing 1/2-cup portions. So for instance, if you make hummus, make a lot. Line up your silicone cupcake liners on a cookie sheet, then fill them with hummus. You can adjust the portions by how much you fill the cups; you can even mound it up. Freeze overnight, then peel away the liners and store the hummus-sicles in a ziplock bag.
This strategy would work great for runny foods that you might serve with rice, such as curries, teriyaki, chili, thick stews, or whatever. You could even do it with beans for salads. Thaw them overnight and, if appropriate, warm them in the morning before you pack them.
