I wish I had enough freezer space to actually freeze enough meals for a week or two.

We bought a chest freezer several years ago for some reason that I don't even remember now. I think it was because my refrigerator died and all I had was a mini-fridge.

Oh oh! I learned this super cool trick to maximize space. Put your food in a ziploc bag, then flatten it out. Flatten it until all the air is out. Then stack them all on top of each other like books.

Kinda like this: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/633459503812409466/

You can do this before/after the things you cook. Like I buy the 3lb hamburger and cut it into thirds, then put each one into a baggie and flatten it. I cut up the chicken, pork, etc, the same way. Stores SO MUCH easier and lasts longer in the freezer.

I can give you a ton of more links and hints if you want. This is like, the one skill I've been working on these last several months.
