Sounds good!
I love having a great big kitchen day or two now and then to keep the freezers full. Plus we send some over to 88 y.o. MIL. I love having choices that whip up quick since you already did the majority of the work!
That machaca is also good on nachos or in a quesadilla.
If you like spicy too then try boneless chicken breasts in the crockpot with hot enchilada sauce and cream of chicken soup. It's good for Arroz can Pollo or shredded for any of the other mentioned preps. I do a 6 lb bag of chicken from Sam's with 2 cans of each and add 1 can diced green chilis.
Just bag it for the freezer as you like. I shred some with a little sauce and then bag up the extra sauce seperately so I can do whatever with it.
Forgot to say it's winter here again too :-(

When I worked I used to cook like that for the week. I also found that browning up some ground meat with onion /peppers, or plain and freezing in meal size portions worked to make a quick spaghetti sauce , chili, goulash sort of things too.
