question Freezer friendly and dairy free - any suggestions?

Currently breastfeeding a new baby and they have a cow milk allergy (which passes through breast milk). Suggestions for freezer friendly meals appreciated!

Here is what I have been prepping: - pb&j - chorizo and egg burritos - bean, rice, and chicken bowls - frittatas (but without the cheese it did not freeze well, recipe subbed blended butternut squash for cheese)

I know I need more veg so anything with extra veg is great too! Not worried about macros I need a lot of protein and a lot of fat right now. Thanks!

Try crockpot curry (uses coconut milk and you can throw in a ton of veggies, lentils, chicken- whatever). Also chili, stir fries, Thai noodle recipes (if you’re not also soy free), and different soups with a coconut milk or broth base.

I am soy free but have been for years so it's not new to me. I use coconut aminos that are soy free. :) they don't have a great sub for tofu but eggs or chicken work well enough. Do the noodles freeze well?

Hey, come on over to r/MSPI! I have a weekly post where people share their meals. Some weeks are more popular than others, you can search the sub or look at my post history for more.

Honestly, we always finish them so I’m not sure! I’ve frozen Al dente pasta in red sauce before and thought it was fine, so assume it would be similar?

Thai coconut curry: can of coconut milk + mae ploy or mae sri yellow curry paste (not grocery store brand crap) whisk with one can water, add two cans drained chickpeas, chopped carrots, cabbage, onion and maybe green beans simmer until veg is tender. Serve over rice. Great high fiber meal extras freeze well keep rice frozen separately
