NYCGirl, how do you "flash freeze"? I have always frozen onions, as I dislike having to stop and chop onions when I need a few. I have been buying frozen peppers and onions (fajita mix) as they are generally less than fresh, and when cooked there is no real difference in taste. Maybe next summer I can find fresh peppers somewhere around.
And to keep it RV related, I am trying to determine how to have a freezer in my MH when I go full time.
This link shows you how to flash freeze and discusses some of the benefits:
Home Flash Freezing
I'm like you.....when I start cooking I don't want to be bothered with mundane tasks like cutting onions. Once and forget is a thing of beauty;). Oh and I always line my sheets w/ parchment paper before freezing; easier to get the food off the pan. I find that the only type of dishes that home flash frozen food doesn't do well for are high heat meals like stir frying. Too much water even though it's less than regular freezing.
I'm looking to have my fridge w/ miniscule freezer removed at the plant and just install a complete freezer in it's place. I'd rather store refrigerated goods in a cooler if there is no space for a larger unit.
