3 Down, 2 to Go

So today is cooking day. I haven’t had one of those in a while. It’s a day I devote entirely to cooking and freeze the meals I cook. I may cook for about 5 hours, but I end up with 12 or so dinners. This morning I cooked the easy ones Chicken Fajita Casserole, Broccoli Chicken Casserole, and Hashbrown Casserole (and the girls haven’t even gotten up yet). Currently taking a break and then I’ll do Lasagna and Shepard’s Pie (tangent-apparently my program doesn’t recognize the words shepard’s or shepard, am I not spelling that right?).

A friend of mine in Washington showed me how to do freezer meals. They’re awesome since most days I just don’t feel like cooking and it avoids another trip out to eat. Plus (my) rule makes every dish have a starch, vegetable and a meat so they’re well rounded (we consume so much dairy and fruit all day long I don’t worry about hitting those). You can go to www.30daygourmet.com to learn more, or just google freezer meals.
