I made some modifications to the recipe
Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (frozen)
1 large (26oz.) can cream of mushroom soup
6 oz. can sliced mushrooms, drained out most of liquid
3/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
Assembly:
Place chicken in gallon Ziploc bag (inside of round crockpot). Mix remaining ingredients in separate bowl and pour over chicken. Freeze standing up, so it will fit in the crock pot when you are ready to cook.
Serving Day:
Cook from frozen. Remove plastic bag from frozen meal. Place meal in crock pot. Cook on low 10-12 hours. Serve over rice.
I included 5-min rice for you. Just follow instructions on label

Beef Fajitas
Modified from "Don't Panic: Dinner's in the Freezer", p. 122
1.5 lbs sirloin
1 onion - diced
1 green pepper - strips
Tortillas and cheese
Marinade
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup tequilla (I skipped this)
3-4 cloves garlic, minced
1 t. salt
1/2 tsp pepper
(I actually used 1/4 packet of the old el paso seasoning for fajitas instead of salt and pepper)
*freeze like a hockey puck in a muffin tin***
Thawing instructions: Morning/Night before you want to eat. Take sirloin out of vacuum sealing and put in a bag. Add the hockey puck of marinade to the bag. Thaw in the fridge for 24 hours or so.
Cooking instructions:
Option 1: Slice beef, then stir fry.
- After thawed and marinated, slice beef into thin strips. (Throw away marinade).
- In a large skillet, add oil. Stir fry onion for 2 or 3 minutes. Add beef and peppers. Stir fry beef until almost desired doneness.
- Serve with tortillas and cheese... and anything else you like with it.
Option 2: Grill beef. Then Slice
- After thawed and marinated. Grill beef. After letting it rest, slice into strips.
- In a large skillet, add oil. Stir fry onion for 2 or 3 minutes. Add peppers. Stir fry 2 more minutes. Add beef into skillet just to warm and mix all together.
- Serve with tortillas and cheese... and anything else you like with it.
- If you didn't want to mess with stir frying veggies, you could probably put in a foil pouch and throw on grill too.
