lasagna freezes SO well. assemble, then freeze (don`t bake). Also, stuffed manicotti (tip: use the no-boil lasagna noodles instead of manicotti, boil a minute or two then roll them around the filling; much easier than stuffing manicotti with a tot around!)

Here is a good one for a cheesy hashbrown/ham casserole, super easy..i plan on freezing it for my friend this weekend who is having a c section on monday! http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Cheesy-Ham-and-Hash-Brown-Casserole/Detail.aspx

I freeze so many things so that I can make easy dinners and we dont have the urge to eat out. I like knowing I have meals in the oven and I always know the ingredients. Some of my favorites are black bean soup, red beans and rice. I dont combine the red beans and rice until the day I eat it though. (rice is easy to freeze,run it under cold water like this http://www.recipezaar.com/Plain-Rice-Make-Ahead-OAMC-Throw-It-in-the-Freezer-159839) For the red beans I use a recipe similar to this http://www.cooks.com/rec/view/0,1942,143162-229201,00.html but I dont use beef broth (I am a vegetarian- we use water) and I use dry beans. It freezes so well and its super cheap. I double the recipe and freeze half and eat half :) Also, many muffins freeze well. I make muffins then heat them up for breakfast for my son and I. We also make `chicken` noodle soup (being vegetarians we substitute chick peas), chili, vegetable soup, and a lot more. I probably have at least 10 meals frozen in there right now. Also, you can go to recipe zaar. com and type in `oamc` (once a month cooking) and it will pull up recipes. Good luck :)

My mom made me a bunch of `TV dinner` style meals. she`s cook potatoes, veggies and shake & bake chicken in a bunch of dishes then freeze them.

Chilli full of veggies! It`s one of my favourite freezer friendly meals.

Not really any recipes, but you can make chicken veg soup, veg beef soup or just vegetable soup. All three freezes well and they all pretty much start off the same way. I usally make a homemade stock (chicken, beef or vegetable). You can also make spaghetti, lasagna. I also made homemade potpies and pasties....

I`ll start: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Picante-Chicken-Rice-Burritos/Detail.aspx My hubbie and I tried this recently and LUV this recipe. It also freezes well which makes it exactly the type of recipe I`m looking for ;) Thanks.

  1. ANGRY!!!! My jenakers account is missing my ENTIRE journal from my high risk pregnancy and my letthisonestick account for my 7 month old is completely gone along with my journal. I AM SICK OVER IT!
  2. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  3. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  4. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  5. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  6. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  7. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  8. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  9. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  10. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
