When you want them, just pop in the freezer. Dead simple! Over the past six months, I have done away with nearly every convenience food I can think of, and I buy vegetables loose rather than pre-prepared and wrapped in plastic. It's so much cheaper and healthier. Also, I bought Tawra Kellam's 'Dining on a Dime' and she has TONS of recipes for items that we've all grown used to buying at the store rather than making ourselves (I don't work for Tawra nor am I related! just recommending the book) In my experience, if you really want to change the way your family eats, you can, as long as you believe that what you are doing is the right thing. Keep up the good work! Leftover homemade waffles are perfect for freezing, just let them cool first. When you want them, just pop in the freezer. Dead simple!

I put chicken and cheese on the torts rolles them up topped with enchilada sauce and more cheese and they turned out really yummy! I just used the last of my torts and thats something we ALWAYS have in the house...

The rest of the spaghetti will go tomorrow for my husband's lunch. I still have a few leftovers in the fridge for lunches this week. Finished up the leftover vegetable soup tonight.

I always make huge batches of pancakes and waffles to freeze. I lay them out on cooling racks first so they don't stick together. It's super convenient to throw them into the toaster, and even better because they are homemade. I agree tortillas are easy to make. I want a tortilla press so they are more perfectly round.
