This is kind of funny, at least my girls think it is… but hey, it works!

We like bacon but it’s hard to know how much we want and need and it varies. So I learned from some other blog that I don’t remember… that you can roll up the individual strips and flash freeze them on a cookie sheet. And then store them in a freezer box or bag.. or jar!

I suppose that you could stash them in a freezer bag, but I’m trying to get away from using too much plastic. We have to use plastic bags for all the rocks and minerals, so I’m trying to not use them in my day to day use. The jars work great. Just stash a few in there and pop in the freezer.

All you have to do is take out as many strips as you want and they thaw really fast. And then you can uncurl them and fry or bake away!

And bacon in a jar will make your children laugh!
