So we have a lovely new 16 cu ft freezer. Right now it has a bunch of meat, frozen waffles, frozen veggies, and ice cream, but there is still a ton of room.

So now I am looking for inspiration on what to make and freeze. I plan on making some lasagnas/bake ziti - do you guys recommend baking it off, cooling, and freezing, or assembling it, freezing, and baking fresh after it's defrosted?

I also plan on making a couple different types of tomato sauce with fresh tomatoes this summer.

What else should I make ahead and freeze? Recipes are appreciated!

I always recommend baking then freezing. It is usually better.

I love frozen:
-Eggplant Parm (my absolute favorite)
-Lasagna
-Meatballs
-Soups
-Chili
-Burgers
-Bread (to make garlic bread or bruschetta)
-Frozen Vegetables
-Sausage and Peppers
-Casseroles

Must be so exciting to have a nice big freezer!
