Caribbean Jerk Marinade
Cheeseburger Quiche

Turkey & Artichoke Shells

You will need to bring a baking dish or sheet pan to take home your shells. We have found it works well to flash freeze the shells, not touching, before transferring to a freezer bag for longer storage. Then you can take out exactly what you need. Or if you know you will be making them for a large group, go ahead and freeze them all together in the baking dish you will be using.

Please bring any cooling racks (stacking preferred) to allow the French toast to cool. If anyone has a griddle they can bring, it will go twice as fast. Tristy used to bring our second griddle bringer. =-(

You may want to bring a cookie sheet or two to take home your french toast. If they're too warm when they go in freezer bags, you really have to pry them apart once they're frozen!

Jen has volunteered to do the shopping again this month.

About this blog:

We are a group of moms who get together about once a month or so to cook Meals Made Ahead.

Meals Made Ahead are great because it's nice to always have something in the freezer for those nights that are busy, those nights when you can't think of anything to make, those nights when you have nothing to cook with because you didn't feel like dragging two screaming kids through the grocery store, those nights when you just don't feel like cooking.

Sure, we could do this on our own. But it's much more fun to cook with friends (and share the clean up!)

The secret ingredient

"If a woman could see the sparks of light going forth from her fingertips when she is cooking, and the substance of light that goes into the food she handles, she would be amazed to see how much of herself she charges into the meals that she prepares for her family and friends. It is one of the most important and least understood activities of life, that the radiation and feeling that go into the preparation of food affect everyone who partakes of it. And this activity should be unhurried, peaceful, and happy because the substance of the lifestream performing the service flows into that food and is eaten, and actually becomes part of the energy of the receiver. It would be better that an individual did not eat at all than to eat food that has been prepared under a feeling of anger, apathy, resentment, depression, or any outward pressure."
