You've pretty much answered your own question. Yes, chicken & noodles will
freeze well. You didn't mention Lasagna. It's easy to cut into individual
portions for freezing and equally easy to to zap in the microwave.
Surprisingly, cooked rice freezes well so you might consider that (along
with the meatloaf) as a side with gravy (which also freezes well). Mashed
potatoes. Veggies, there's no end. Just shop your local freezer section
