As a follow up to my last post about Ice Cube trays. I had some extra mashed potatoes leftover from a dinner. Instead of throwing them out I used the trays to help make life easier for our next dinner. This was an amazing life saver the other day. They are perfectly portioned to become a part of any meal. I froze them in ~1/2 cup each. I added a tbsp of water per cube. Microwaved for 1 minute, then 30 seconds later another minute. (You could probably just do 2 mins a cube to reheat.) This was a real life have that saved food from the compost, saved time, and tasted amazing. Totally something I would definitely suggest you doing. I used to make complete frozen meals with leftover potatoes but now I think this is my new way of freezing mashed potatoes as it really allows a ton of flexibility.
Thanks for the great tip. I’m going to try it !
