Sandwich fillings I can make in advance and freeze.

I had to buy a lunch today as I was too hungover to make one but if I have a supply in the freezer I can just batch make them and use them up as needed.

What is good for freezing like this?

Ham and mustard, cheese and pickle, peanut butter, jam, beef and horseradish, chicken in white sauce (out of a tin) is better with french mustard stirred in.

No tomato or cucumber, of course.

the reason mine all have mustard or pickle or something, is that the flavour flattens when things are frozen, so they need a bit of perking up.

You might use more pepper, for example.

I've just made a batch of rolls that you heat in the microwave for a hot lunch.

I trimmed the fat of a shoulder of pork and then slow cooked it on top of a cut onion and a cup of ginger beer. I cooked on high for 8 hours then discarded the liquid, shredded the meat and put it back in the slow cooker with a bottle of bulls BBQ sauce and cooked for another hour.

Once cooled I put in buns and froze and then took one to work today, it was lovely.

Christ, what did fabfood post to get deleted? I thought it was just about soup?

My cheese and pickle works just fine frozen.
