This freezer recipe would be my claim to fame in the kitchen! It is a rich tomato sauce (that is so very simple to make), over breaded chicken with Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses. Your family will think that you slaved away all day to make this one!

    1. Good question! All baked recipes on our site will need to be thawed prior to baking (per current food safety recommendations).

      1. This needs to be clearer on your directions. “Make from frozen” and “Make from previously frozen but now thawed” are not one in the same.

        1. Angel,
          There are two ways of saying things and your way is definitely not the right way! So, that could be a bit clearer~ I agree… but, you could be a bit nicer.

        2. Hi Nancy,
          As a courtesy to our non-members we do make public our recipes. We post them in a variety of ways to prepare them – both to prepare it fresh (Make It Now); prepare as a freezer meal (Freeze For Later) and then the instructions to prepare that freezer meal (Make From Frozen). I hope that this clears up any confusion! Thank you.
