Grilled Marinated Steak

Basic recipe for marinating steak for freezer cooking. No, the steak won't "overmarinate" if frozen promptly.


Mock Gyros (Steak in Pitas)

I make this at-home version of a Greek standard whenever I'm hungry for a real gyro. These days, tzatziki sauce is more widely available--meaning the Ewer family eats a lot more of these!


Steak Fajitas for Freezer Cooking

Who says you can't do freezer cooking in the summertime? This pre-marinated entree can be pan-seared or grilled outdoors. Pair it with refried beans for a hearty, easy meal.


French Dip Sandwiches for Freezer Cooking

Planned-over meals? One of the best pairs a Roast Beef and Mashed Potatoes dinner with French Dip Sandwiches and Potato Salad. To tell the truth, the family probably prefers the leftovers! A great meal for a busy night.


Roast Beef and Gravy (microwave version)

A traditional Sunday dinner at our house, this microwave recipe speeds cooking time.

Freeze leftovers for French Dip Sandwiches for a simple, second meal.


Beef Bourguignon (Burgundy Beef Stew)

This rich, hearty French-inspired beef stew is a favorite in the Ewer household--and among our guests!

This sturdy dish takes well to freezing, and flavors are enhanced by the time melding in the freezer.

Serve over white rice for a warming dish on a cold day.


Spaghetti Sauce with Meat

Every family has a favorite spaghetti sauce recipe; this one is ours. Tuck meat sauce into the freezer for a quick-fix spaghetti dinner.


Meatloaf with Rice Stuffing (microwave)

Cooked in a microwave ring pan, this upscale meatloaf features a rice-mushroom filling and pretty presentation. Get dinner on the table fast!


Mim's Cabbage Rolls

Our family knows it's Autumn when this dish hits the table. Even cabbage-avoiders can't resist these savory meal-filled cabbage rolls.

Another home-cooking favorite from my grandmother, Mim.


Cannelloni with Cheese Sauce

Hearty Italian casserole, this dish uses Marinara Sauce and White Sauce recipes, found in the Basic Recipes section.
