What's for Dinner

As I'm sitting here in my hotel room wondering if I should eat a PBJ or turkey sandwich I wonder which, if any of the precooked meals Zed will eat tonight.

While I was home this past weekend I made 4 crockpot meals and froze them. We had food storage that we needed to use or lose within the next month. All zed has to do is pull the gallon zip lock bag out of the freezer the night prior and then throw it in the crockpot before he leaves for the day. I made him beef stroganoff, teriyaki pork chops, pot roast, and a ravioli sausage bake. The beef stroganoff he will have to make either rice or noodles to eat with it. As he eats them I'll be sure to let you know how they taste and post the recipes and any tips.

To make these four meals (all family sized) I spent about $60 and 1hr into the kitchen. This is not bad considering these meals will last him, at minimum 10 meals. If this goes well, the plan so to continue this method and hopefully make it easier once baby girl #2 comes along.

If any of you have any recommendations, please share!
