Because of Thanksgiving, I am also clearing out some freezer meals. Got to love that it is easy to have something in place!
I would do lasagna for friends on Saturday- it is cozy and so different than Thanksgiving food. Finger food is always fun, but many people eat that as apps on Thanksgiving. Who can resist lasagna?

Sounds great!

I stole one of your recipes from last week and put a link to it on my site with my Menu Monday posting.

Cheers!

Have a great day!

I’m impressed that you have so many “go to” freezer meals. A little jealous, too…

Heidi, I have lots of leftovers from my meals because my kids hardly eat anything and my husband is not home for dinner most nights. So even without planning for overage, I almost always have something I can freeze if I don’t think we’ll get to it in a day or so. (I would much rather my boys ate what I cooked than have leftovers!) — Dara

Ooh, sweet potato and black bean burritos sound lovely. It seems like the freezer works beautifully for you… I wish I had more than just a in unit freezer. We do try to freeze some dishes, but I would do more if there was more room!

I have a relatively small, awkward drawer freezer on the bottom of my fridge (and no extra freezer!). I try to freeze almost everything flat, in quart Ziploc bags, so I can stack them. If I used Tupperware or similar I’d never fit anything! — Dara

My meal plan this week is basically: Does this clean out my fridge? We’re using leftovers, eating sandwiches, etc. We host Thanksgiving for our families each year (we have the most children, so we reserve the right not to travel on holidays), and I do pretty much all the cooking (by preference, that isn’t a complaint). So, we need lots of room. We have two refrigerators and a cooler in our breezeway going during the holidays.

Have a happy Thanksgiving!

I am envious. Your healthy cooking is much healthier than mine.

I figure the boys barely eat my junkier cooking (homemade mac and cheese, pizza, tuna noodle casserole etc.) anyway so I might as well serve them healthy stuff and have them not eat it! — Dara
