Freezer Cooking

I wanted to try OAMC (once a month cooking) but lack of freezer space and time quickly soured that idea. So I decided to try freezer cooking instead. I finished with about 2 weeks worth of dinners and 6 loaves of banana bread for snacks and breakfasts. Most of this was accomplished on Saturday. Here is a quick break down of what I made:

      1. Black Bean Soup (2 Batches)
      2. King Ranch Casserole (2 Batches)
      3. Chicken Enchiladas
      4. Tamale Corn Casserole
      5. Red Beans and Rice (2 Batches)
      6. Pinto Beans (2 Batches)
      7. Pork Satay (2 Batches)
      8. Shredded BBQ Pork for sandwiches (2 Batches)
      9. Shredded Carne Asada (2 Batches)
I wanted to make a great spaghetti recipe, but halfway through cooking the pasta, I realized it had been invaded by those darn pasta bugs. Any ideas how to get rid of and prevent these little beasts?


My Kitchen!! What a mess!


DISASTER!!

Here is a picture of one of my helpers chopping and sampling:


And this is the look I was getting all day from my kitchen window.

If any of these meals sound yummy, let me know and I will post the recipes .
Happy Freezer Day!!!

Once a Month Cooking

Does anyone out there have experience with OAMC? I mean real experience. Like, trying to homeschool, no grandparents to the rescue, trying to do your own school kinda experience? I really want to try this cuz I know it will help me out alot. But I have 3 kids to school, plus other responsibilities. Any suggestions?
