Inspired Meals from the Freezer

Inspired Meals from the Freezer

We turn to the freezer for family-friendly dinner ideas when we don’t have time to cook or when we want to finish a meal with a quick side dish. But what if your freezer stash was just the start for a more exciting meal? With everything from frozen potatoes in just about every form to frozen greens and veggies, the freezer gives you a head start to any recipe. Add in your favorite Hidden Valley® Ranch products — and some pantry staples — for a delicious freezer casserole. Here is a recipe for one of the best ways to use tater tots plus links to a few other favorite frozen vegetable recipes. Store in the freezer with Glad® FLEX’N SEAL™ Freezer Quart Bags or Glad® FLEX’N SEAL™ Freezer Gallon Bags that stretch to hold 30% more* for future meals.
