    Those of us who use Tupperware freezer containers SAVE over $1000-1200 a year in foil AND baggies! PLUS we have NO freezer burn ever!

    It’s not available in Israel. Email me privately as my sister will be in Israel for Yom Tov and I can send along a copy with her…[email protected]

    For meatballs I do freeze with sauce but I do it flat in a freezer ziploc. To use only what I need, I leave it on the counter for a few minutes, ‘snap off’ the number of meatballs with the sauce attached and put the rest back in the freezer.

    If you can’t find kosher cranberry sauce you can make your own from fresh or frozen cranberries.

    There is no kosher cranberry sauce. What is a good replacement?
