It sucks when hunger strikes and you go to search for food only to find out that your salsa expired 2 weeks ago, your chips are stale, and there is nothing to cook in your fridge. You are left feeling disappointed and hungry. But then suddenly you remember that you have snacks in the freezer! Hallelujah!
Taking a little time out of your day to make a batch or two of snacks to put in your freezer will so be worth it when hunger strikes. The best part? Your delicious treats will last so much longer in the freezer than they would if they were in the refrigerator or the pantry. If you make time every other week, you will soon have a freezer stacked with snacks prepared for a movie night in with a group of friends, something for you and your roomie to share, a bite to eat in the morning, a midday pick-me-up, or a midnight snack.
