I haven't posted in a while because my parents were actually here last weekend! We pulled off a surprise birthday party for my sister who just turned 40 last week. She had no idea about the party at all!
Anyway, this week, I have been trying out some new recipes. I found out about this website (if you go to this site, you can download some of the sample books!) from this blog (this blog has some great recipes and tips). Now I have to admit, I have never thought about cooking large amounts of food and freezing it before. But our schedule gets a little busy sometimes and I hate the thought of not eating a good meal at home. So Monday, I prepared Make Ahead Chimichangas. I was able to make enough for dinner that night, plus enough for 4 more meals for the freezer. Tuesday night, I make BBQ Chicken. I bought enough chicken on sale to prepare dinner for that night, plus 2 more dinners for the freezer. Then this afternoon, I prepared Breakfast Burritos. Kev has been eating a modified South Beach diet, so I prepared his with whole grain tortillas and low fat cheese. I was able to put about 24 burritos in the freezer!! I still need to do the French Toast Sticks.
