Items you can and can't freeze

These freeze great!:


Cream soups -- poured into ice cube trays. Thaw and stir with milk or water if it separates.

Goat Cheese

Croutons

Hot dogs

Heavy cream -- shake well and mix with a small amount of dissolved gelatin if it separates.

Eggs (raw, out of the shell)

Egg Beaters

Red potatoes, halved

Avocados, halved and pitted

Guacamole

Poultry, cooked and off the bone

Butter

Margarine (sticks and tubs)

Pasta

Rice

Tubes of Cookie dough

Yogurt

Gogurt tubes

Yeast

Cheese singles

Shredded Cheese

Parsley

Cilantro

Flavored coffee creamer

Berries

Orange Juice

Cookies

Tortillas

Bread

Green onions -chopped in 1/2 inch pieces. Smaller pieces are too watery.



These are ok -- minor troubles:

Lunchmeat

Milk

Soy Milk

Ricotta Cheese

Cottage Cheese

Block Cheese - slightly crumbly, but fine in recipes

Cream Cheese - a little watery and grainy when thawed, but fine in recipes

Bananas

Onions and green peppers (chopped)

Lemons (whole)

Pillsbury Crescents & Flaky Layers - not as flaky and layer-y as the MFR intended











Don't even try it! :

Sour Cream

Mayo

Miracle Whip

Apples (whole or chopped/sliced)

Ready made sandwiches
