One of the thing I love about OAMC cooking, is at the end of the day, something productive got done! You know, instead of those days when everything is falling apart at the end of the day and you can't even name one productive thing that was physically accomplished. None of that with cooking day! You can lay out all your goods at the end of the day and see with your own eyes what was accomplished. Love it!
Recently, my mom came to visit, so we took advantage of the extra pair of hands and spent a day filling the freezer. We even got just a bit of prep time the day before. Mom watched the kids and my husband and I worked in the kitchen. He makes fabulous muffins! The baby enjoyed some time in my sling and other times sat with Grandma. Of course, I took breaks to nurse him too.
So, here's what we got done: one pan of homemade granola, a double batch of oatmeal pancakes, two meals of enchilada bake, two meals of vegetarian crustless pot pie (this was an experiment), three meals of refried black beans and Spanish rice (to put in tortillas or whatever), a quadruple batch of "Balls," 6 batches of waffles, 8 meals worth of vegan burgers, 8 meals worth of soup, and almost a gross of muffins!
The freezer is FULL!
