My Favourite Small Kitchen Appliance

If you follow my Instagram acct, then its no secret, I love to cook! What I love even more, is to cook in large batches, and freeze things in order to tame the chaos that comes at dinner time!

The absolute 1 thing that I could not live without in my kitchen is my FoodSaver.

(FYI this is my own opinion, I am not being sponsored by this company)

You can read more about it HERE

I purchased mine a Costco several years ago in a bundle pack that came with a Marinade Dish (which totally rocks for quick marinading) and lots of refills

Here are a few (crappy) pics from my kitchen 

Double Stuffed Potatoes
 (I bake a 10lb bag of potatoes,  double stuff them, then flash freeze on a cookie sheet first then put them in the vacuum bags)

Shredded Cheese
(When I menu plan for the month, I buy all the cheese I need for recipes, then put it through my food processor, then measure out, write out the amount of cheese thats in it, what recipe it goes to, then seal & put in the fridge)

Mashed Potatoes
( I cook a 10lb bag up and make my potatoes, then pre-measure into the freezer bags for dinners)

Here is the inside of my garage fridge. 

Also when we buy our meat, we portion it out as soon as we get home from the grocery store.  

Other foods I vacuum seal & freeze
