For easy storage and thawing of ground meats, before freezing divide the meat into several equal parts and place between pieces of wax paper. Use a rolling pin to flatten meat into a thin, wide patty. Layer the wax paper and rolled out patties and store in a large freezer bag. Not only do the thin patties take less freezer space than the store wrapped heap of meat, they also take less time to defrost and you can defrost only the amount you need! Especially handy if you're buying in bulk and only cooking for two!

Grill or pan fry (in a sprayed, nonstick skillet), many boneless/skinless chicken breasts. Season them with seasoned salt and garlic powder. Cool and wrap individually in plastic wrap. Place wrapped chicken breasts in a large zip lock bag and keep in the freezer. These are great for a quick Caesar salad, barbecue chicken salad (warmed in microwave with some lowfat barbecue sauce), or chopped for a cold chicken salad. Submitted by wellness consultant Lori Thibideau.

Keep brown sugar wraped in another plastic bag in the freezer to make it last longer without hardening. Take it out to thaw about 15 minutes before you need to use it, then return the remaining portion to the freezer.
