hello i'm new to this group. fresh out of divorce { well if you can
call
that fresh } any way i have a 7 year old girl hanna and a 6 year
old
boy
josh . trying to make sure we as mom and dad keep our kids lives as
normal
as possible we have joint phys custody and i'm confident in my
parenting
abilities the reason for my first post is i need some new idea's
for
cooking let's face it mom cooked and left me with hamburger's and
such
.
now i need to step up in this area any ideas will be apperciated
Ok more seriously... Learn to cheat... I do... I make 2 huge dinners
over
the weekend... Like monster roasts or make double batches of things
like
spaghetti sauce or whatever I want to make and I put it in the
freezer
for
the week...
Left overs......you must be kidding..................
Nope no kidding... Sauces do really well in the freezer... Seems to take
as
long to make the pasta as it does to defrost and heat the sauce LOL
Cooking is like sex.....sure your can get it finished in a couple of
minutes...............but the fun is in bringing the experience to fruition.
;-)
I also search online during the week for different recipes that I
like
to
make that weekend... Print them off, buy the ingredients and cook on
my
days
off... If the recipe flops then we put it in the "icky" pile and
burn
it in
the fireplace LOL...
My trick was to always have either lots of fresh fruit and veggies
in
the
fridge so that if you are late coming home from work or soccer or
whatever
you can grab an apple while tossing some of the freezer goodies in
the
oven
or microwave...
http://www.recipeland.com/ is a pretty decent site to visit and
explore
most
of the recipes are pretty tasty
