Yeah I like to keep leftovers in the refrigerator, for fast reheating of subsequent servings. But really, is putting foods in the freezer are safe? What Can You Freeze? Here is all you've ever wanted to know about freezing and more: Food stored constantly at 0 °F will always be safe. Only the quality suffers with lengthy freezer storage. Freezing keeps food safe by slowing the movement of molecules, causing microbes to enter a dormant stage. Freezing preserves food for extended periods because it prevents the growth of microorganisms that cause both food spoilage and foodborne illness.
1. Cooked Pasta. Cook a pound of bow-ties (firm but not hard) and rotelle are best for this purpose. Then freeze (unsauced) in freezer and put it into a ready container for adding to a hot sauce or microwaving later.
2. Homemade Pasta Sauce. Make a batch and store in containers (be sure to leave a little space at the top for expansion). Cream sauces do not freeze well.
3. Very Ripe Bananas. For an instant protein rich smoothie store ripe bananas in the freezer, peeled, in freezer bags and blend them with skim milk and soy protein powder.
4.Raw bacon, wrapped side-by-side in pairs in parchment or waxed paper and then enclosed in foil is great for keeping portions on hand.
5. Peeled Deveined Shrimp. Thaw shrimp quickly under cool running water to make a tasty meal in a snap. Hope some of this helped! =)
