It's so simple.  I wrack my brain constantly on how to use leftovers, or what kinds of make ahead meals I can have in the freezer. Why have I never thought of sandwiches?!?!

Next time you have some leftover ham or turkey to use...or heck, just want to have a stockpile of pb&j's in the freezer, make some sandwiches!

Now...not all frozen sandwiches are created equally.  There are some ingredients that don't freeze well.  Go HERE for great tips and advice from Alice Henneman, MS, RD, UNL Extension.
