Early out, I froze stuff in an ice cube tray, then popped out a cube or two and reheated in a microwave safe dish.

Did you cover the ice cube tray with plastic or pop them out and freezer bag them?

Further out I now use the glad one cup containers. Pre make my chilli and fill them half full for lunches. Tat way I always have something available in my freezer which keeps my choices quick and healthy :)

Muffin tins are perfect for puree because they hold about half a cup. You can line with muffin cups and peel off the paper after it freezes, then put the "cups" into ziploc bags. I have found that they thaw and heat in the microwave, 2 minutes if you want it hot, or 1 minute if you want it cold or room temp.

I shared several puree receipes in the Recipe Swap section.

I got all the recipes! Thanks! Does the paper stick to the food?

Nope but you have to be a bit careful when you take it off. I didn't use waxed paper muffin cups but you can get them, and that might help. I suspect it would be a mess to leave the paper on and thaw the food.< /p>

I froze in 2 oz condiment containers. They reheat in the microwave beautiful, but the lids curl up.

2 oz. portions stored in condiment containers

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      April Surgery

My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
