Chudder Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Hi! I'm new to Whole 30 and am starting my journey January 1, 2016. I am prepping food today and tomorrow and am wondering if I make the Romesco garlic shrimp with zucchini noodles recipe (page 244 of whole 30 book), can I freeze portions for lunches for throughout the week? I just don't have a lot of time during the week to prep this meal and wanted a convenient meal for lunches. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmcbn Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 I batch cook for the week every Sunday & what doesn't fit in my fridge gets frozen to eat at a later date. My week nights are just too busy to do otherwise but I tend to prep 'items' (eg. a whole chicken, some slow cooked shin, steamed salmon, a tray of roasted veg, braised kale etc) rather than recipes & then mix & match proteins & veg dishes (with a suitable fat source) to make a meal.Freeze away (although personally I'm always cautious about freezing shrimp) - planning is key!!Best of luck for your journey.......................

You should have no problem freezing the shrimp and sauce but I would highly recommend you don't freeze zucchini... it is NOT pleasant when thawed...

First, it could end up being watery as heck when you thaw it and second it could be a food safety issue. I wouldn't risk it. I'm thinking overall that would probably not be the most freezer friendly recipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
