Time Saving Tip

Though casseroles are among the easiest recipes to double and freeze, they do take up lots of space. If you want to save space in the freezer, line the casserole with heavy duty aluminum foil or plastic wrap leaving a generous overhang on all four sides. Add the casserole mixture, and freeze until solid. Remove the foil liner, and wrap the food, using the overhangs, or seal it in a plastic freezer bag. Label the food package, and return it to the freezer. When ready to serve, remove wrapping and return to the casserole dish to thaw in the refrigerator and then you can cook and serve. Don't forget to spray your casserole dish with vegetable cooking spray.
