I made the Low Carb Taco Casserole from a couple of threads ago & it was tasty. I also made the Moc ‘N Cheese from the Wolfe Pitt (low carb recipes) & it was yummy - could have eaten the whole 8 x 8 pan in one sitting. As it was, I ate a good bit of it & had it for breakfast the next morning, too.

Some ‘tips’ I never posted on the last thread:

I use blue painter’s tape (1 inch width) for labeling. It sticks on freezer bags & is great for canning jars. Previously, we bought some ‘freezer labels’ & they have to be soaked off (Goo Gone was a little faster) - horrible. The blue painter’s tape peels right off. I use a sharpie marker for writing on the tape.

Also, while making the taco casserole, it called for a quarter cup of tomato sauce. I hated to waste the rest in the can so I used some plastic cups ... the small ones fruit/applesauce, etc. come in .... and put a quarter cup of sauce in each cup, froze them, then put them in a zip lock bag & labeled. Freezing in an ice cube tray was another option, but to get a measured 1/4 cup, the small plastic cups worked well.

Very good ideas!

(The Wolfe Pit has a lot of really good recipes.)
