Freezer Cook Off
If you've been following me on Facebook, you've seen me talking about the Freezer Cook Off. I am SO over throwing away perfectly good food. I have decided to dedicate one Saturday/Sunday a month to baking four large meals. I will then portion them into individual servings, seal them, and freeze them. The Goal: to have healthy meals throughout the month.
We hate eating leftovers 2 or 3 days in a row, so this gives us the opportunity to pick and choose what we want, when we want. I will document the results! Another idea is to have friends over so you can all share each other's food items!

How Does it Work?
You put the food to be vacuum-sealed in one of the special FoodSaver bags, and the FoodSaver Vacuum Sealer removes all the air from the bag and seals it with an airtight heat seal. It doesn’t sound that incredible until you realize that most food spoils because it comes into contact with air.
Consider these uses:
Vacuum seal whole bean or ground coffee for long term storage without fear of oxidation
Store nuts and seeds for longer at room temperature without them turning rancid
Seal leftovers and freeze for later use
Make large amounts of soups or stew, portion and freeze in FoodSaver storage bags

Vacuum sealers perform three major tasks. No surprise, one task is to remove oxygen. In removing oxygen, mold and bacterial growth is slowed down, and foods can be safely stored for longer periods of time. The second job of a vacuum sealer is to create a moisture barrier. This does two things.
Not only does it keep moisture in your foods, it also keeps excess moisture out. No more slimy meat. Lastly, the vacuum sealer creates a flavor barrier, keeping the entire flavor in and keeping unwanted flavors out. Vacuum sealed foods taste just as fresh and vibrant after a month in the freezer as they did when they were made.
