About a month before a big trip, I will start preparing and freezing meals. I'll bake a meatloaf, divide it into amounts that will serve the two of us for a meal, and freeze. I'll make chili, vegetable soup, spaghetti sauce, crockpot pulled pork, sloppy joes, etc. and freeze in ziplocks in mealsize portions. To freeze, I fill ziplock, then lay flat in freezer. It freezes into a thin rectangular shape that is easy to store in RV freezer. I'll also pat out and freeze hamburgers and wrap them individually and place them in a ziplock. Sometimes the night before a trip I will fix roast beef and gravy and mashed potatoes for dinner. Then the leftovers go in the RV refrigerator and make quick on-the-road meals. I take a ham slice because it doesn't take up much room in the refrigerator and is easy to fry. Baking potatoes and sweet potatoes can both be easily microwaved for easy sides. Prepackaged salad kits are also convenient.
