I make soups, roasts, cakes and cookies for the freezer. I used to make egg noodles too but now I skip those. No cooked side dishes or chicken in the freezer.

The cheese snack recipe I'll find you tommorow iyh.
The almond clusters is very simple, melt baking chocolate, mix with chopped almonds, spooned onto lined cookie sheet and put in freezer for a few min till it hardens. Remove and put into airtight container.

I didn't know you can freeze egg noodles. Do they need to be frozen some special way?

I usedto roll them up, lay them out in one layer, and freeze. Then I'd pull them out and slice into curly noodles as needed. It wouldn't taste good frozen for a long time but 2 weeks if fine. It allowed me to make them once and then use as needed throughout YT.

I made 2 pans of meatballs last night - very saucy - freezes beautifully.
On Sunday I will make orange soup and turkey breast and freeze.
I also make matza balls in advance and freeze.

Cheese snacks:
3 8 oz whipped cream cheese
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
2 T. Vanilla sugar
Blend cream cheese with sugar until light and fluffy (you can mix by hand too, but make sure to mix well)
Add eggs and vanilla sugar. Mix well. Fill cupcake holders (I use the thick ones that doesn't need a cupcake tin) bake for 20 min at 350. It'll settle when removed from oven.

Refuah shleima to your cleaning person.
Different philosophies.
Some people don't use anything prepared, other than matzo (presumably), so they spend hours making potato starch to make into cakes, or whatever.
Some people don't cook on the chag at all.
Some people have huge crowds.
Some people like making complicated things.
Others ... are the exact opposite.
I buy prepared items, like ketchup and potato starch. I cook on the chag. And I don't have a huge crowd, except one night. I feel pretty darned decadent that I took off Monday to cook!

I try to cook between 4 days to a week before. Well, I'd love to but usually don't have that much time.
This year, I will be glad if I get done in time...
Thanks for the recipes & the well wishes!
