So, my Jewish readers who are feverishly starting to prepare definitely know why this is coming.
For the rest of you, bear with me for a bit, but the Jewish high holidays are rapidly approaching, followed almost immediately by the Holiday of Sukkot. For Jewish housewives all over the world, that means a whole ton of cooking to be done. And for those who like to prepare ahead, the freezer becomes your best friend. (Of course, there are many times when pre-made meals in your freezer will make life easier, so keep this list handy all year round!)
I personally love to have my food ready in advance, in the freezer. Most of the cakes and cookies on the blog freeze really well, but I figured I would help you out with some recipe ideas for starters, sides and soups…that all freezer well! Scroll down for 40 suggestions. Some from me, some from my blog friends, and some that I found on the internet. Based on personal experience, recommendations from the blogger, or my general knowledge of cooking, the recipes below should freeze nicely, freeing you up to relax on the holidays!
