The same can be done for cooked chopped chicken breast...just cook some in a fry pan (diced) and freeze in 1-cup portions. You can also put the 1-cup portions in large muffin tin cups, freeze for 1-2 hours till firm without falling apart, then pop them out of the tin and put all in one freezer bag. They'll stay separated and you can grab however many "cups" you need when it comes time to use it (chicken soup, enchiladas, chicken salad, stir fry, etc.) |
ive started pre cooking ground beef n chicken..wow i love doing it..so great to just reach in and throw it in something
