  • I just spent the last 3 hours making freezer crockpot meals so I don't want to even think about cooking anything else. Crockpot meals or take it is!
  • @ginabina11 do you have a recipe for the french toast casserole?? It sounds delicious
  • @2ag I love freezer meals. I typically do 7 different recipes which yields 14 meals. I got all of the stuff to make the meals plus a few extra things like milk, bread etc. and it cost $150. I made salsa chicken, Mongolian beef, beef tips & gravy, divine chicken, beef stew, pepper steak, and some other chicken one that I can't think of right now. It is pretty time consuming up front but in my mind it is worth it in the long run and ends up saving us a bunch of money since we aren't tempted to go out to eat or order take out as much.
  • Mon:  chicken thighs, steamed squash, garden tomato slices

    Tues:  ground turkey patties, cucumber and tomato slices for me, rice for H

    Weds:  grilled eggplant, whole wheat penne with pesto

    Thurs: either fend for yourself, or chicken fajitas

    Fri:  no idea - H will probably pick something up to grill

     

     






     

  • Last night - take out chinese

    Mon - leftovers - We have Chinese and Lasagne

    Tues - Chiken and rice casserole

    Wed - Burgers and veggies on the grill (or fries if SO is making dinner because he will hide the veggies)

    Thur - Homemade fish sticks, fresh corn on the cob, mac and cheese

    Fri - Grilled chicken with fresh peach salsa and a green salad

    Sat - Having dinner with friends, we will bring something to compliment the meal
