One of the best things about casseroles is that they can be made anytime, stored in the freezer, and reheated whenever
you need them. Here are a few great tips when you're making one-dish casserole recipes to freeze:
- Prepare two casseroles at one time. Bake one casserole for dinner and freeze the second for another night.
- Most casseroles can be frozen two to three months.
- The best containers for freezing casseroles provide a barrier to moisture and evaporation. These include glass and hard plastic containers as well as plastic bags for freezer use.
- Make sure any container or wrap you use for freezing casseroles is completely sealed and will not leak.
- Be sure to label all containers with the casserole recipe name, reheat instructions, and the date on which you prepared the recipe.
Take your frozen casserole out of the freezer and turn it into a hot, delicious meal!
- Most frozen casseroles do not need to be thawed before reheating. If they do, the safest and best way to thaw them is to put the frozen casserole in the refrigerator the night before.
- Preheat your oven following the instructions on the label you made when you froze your casserole. Then cook the casserole for the time specified — although you may want to add a little more time than the casserole recipe suggests since frozen casseroles sometimes require a little more cooking time.
- Casserole recipes calling for moisture-absorbent pasta or rice may need a little extra liquid as you reheat. Stir in milk, water, tomato sauce, or broth, depending what's used in the casserole recipe. Add liquid a little bit at a time until you like the consistency of the casserole.
Once you have your casserole assembled and ready to bake, you just need to put it in an oven-safe dish.
But which dish? Some casserole recipes call for round dishes and others specify oblong baking dishes.
Here's a handy chart to adapt your casserole recipe to either type of dish:
