5-6 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
1 can cream of chicken soup
4 oz sour cream
1/2 tsp minced garlic
1 small can Rotel
3 cups Colby-Jack Cheese
2 pkgs Soft Taco shells
1. Mix chicken, soup, sour cream, garlic, rotel, and 1 cup of cheese together in a large bowl.
2. To cook: Use half of the chicken mixture to fill the soft taco shells, and roll them and lay them in a 9x13 baking dish. Top with 1 cup cheese. Bake at 375 until the cheese is browned.
3. To freeze: Spoon the rest of the chicken mixture into a freezer bag, and then place that bag, 1 pkg of taco shells, and the rest of the cheese into a larger freezer bag together. Lay flat to freeze.
4. Label with name/date and these instructions: Thaw. Spoon chicken mix into each taco shell. Roll up and place in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Top with cheese. Bake at 375 covered 30 min, then uncover and bake until cheese is browned.
*I like to top this individually with salsa, and serve with a side of Mexican style rice.
As a busy stay-at-home mom of 4, I need God's designed "day of rest" probably more than most! And to help keep our budget from exploding from always eating out (and causing more people to work) on Sundays; I have started a plan of Double-Day Freezer cooking. On a specified day each week, I will plan to cook a double-sized meal and put one of those in the deep freeze to pull out and use on Sunday evenings. This saves me time by cooking once, and feeding twice. And my family still gets a good home cooked meal, without me spending lots of energy on Sunday preparing it.
This blog is my place to share my Double Day Freezer Meal recipes with you, and hopefully give others a day of rest too! :)
