Freezing Cubed Potatoes

This seems almost silly to blog about.  I'm cheap.  I'm busy.  I'm kind of lazy.  

Whatever I can do to make meals easier for us I try to do so we can spend more time doing the things we enjoy.  Believe it or not, I do not enjoy cooking for the most part.  So, I bought a big bag of potatoes from Aldi (the cheap part) and I cubed, blanched and froze them for later (the busy/lazy part).

Really, just peel and cube potatoes.

 Put the potatoes in boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes.  

Dump them in a strainer and rinse with cold water until they are
cool to stop the cooking process.  

Spread them out on a cookie sheet and put them in the
freezer for a few hours or overnight.

Take them out of the freezer and transfer to freezer bags.

Pull them out, season and fry them up when the mood strikes.  

Best thing about these are when Matt saw me making them he said, "breakfast in bed!"  

I hope that happens soon.... :)
