March Freezer Meals

I'm loving the recipes I have received from friends!  Keep them coming please please please.  Any blogstalkers out there are welcome to send them as well.  This month my sisters in law haven't finished off their last batch of meals and we couldn't find a time to get together so I just went ahead and did these by myself.  I definitely went for simplicity because it is harder to cook this many different meals.  There isn't as much variety and it certainly wasn't as fun to do them by myself.  It was doable though and my husband helped with a couple of them. I'm still totally in love with the freezer meal plan.  It has made my life so much more manageable especially since things seems extra crazy for me right now. Hopefully my family doesn't get tired of 10,000 ways to cook chicken. We have a freezer full of frozen beef so I usually cook some of that on Sundays when we are home.  I  There are a few recipes that were similar to each other or to things I have done in the previous months but I wanted to test out which ones we like the best.  I starred the recipes that were repeats that our family likes.
