Freezing Single Meat Patties
I bought a packet of 10 meat patties and individually packed them in freezer bags. Instead of all sticking together in freezer. when I needed only two for hubby and I, it was so easy to take two bags from the freezer and thaw. I did the same thing with some very special bread we like. It is so easy to keep a whole loaf of sliced bread in the freezer, just breaking off one or two slices when needed. I think probably everyone in the Cheapskates Club does something like this with their own cooking so this tip may not be new to them, just to me and other newbies.

Editor's note: Whether you're freezing patties or pancakes, freezing in single or meal sized portions is so easy. I don't use freezer bags though - there is a much cheaper option and it's probably in your pantry right now. Cereal box liners! Yes, they are good for keeping cereal fresh but they make the ideal freezer paper too. Once the cereal has finished wash and dry the bag. I like to open it flat by carefully tearing the bottom open, then I cut it into 10cm squares. When I'm making burgers I can pop them onto the MOO freezer paper and stack them in the freezer. When I need burgers (or sausages or pancakes or meatballs or biscuits or whatever) it really is as easy as gently pulling them apart. Cath
