  4. I see this line in all the recipes, “Divide into indicated number of freezer bags” but can never seem to find how many bags are “indicated”. Am I missing something? Thanks for your help!

    1. April – this line is meant more for when you are doing a big cooking day, and may be making more than one batch of this recipe. Hope that helps.

    2. April, look on the lefthand side of the recipe and you’ll see a section titled “Freezer Containers.” Each recipe has that section.

  5. So, typically, can I assume that each recipe will fit into one gallon-sized bag? I’m on my 4th recipe of 6 for the weekend. Excited to be “stocking up”!

    1. April – it depends on the recipe – some call for smaller. I typically go through gallon and quart the most, and then I like to have pint sized ones on hand as well! Stocking up is exciting!

    1. If you are freezing raw, I would suggest to freeze the water chestnuts and green onions separately. Then on cooking day, thaw and follow slow cooker instructions.

  7. Hi do u have to use the coconut amino to get the flavor your trying to achieve? No whole foods in my area with out traveling a bit. So some whole foods are not avalable at Walmart. Thanks
