One of the things I have been trying to do a lot of lately is making things ahead and freezing them. I recently made 19 cups of vegetable stock, which is stored in my freezer in one cup bags. Last night my tomatoes were going bad so I made up a batch of marinara sauce and froze it. I also made up some pizza dough last night and put into the fridge so that is ready for me to take and bake it up when I get home from work. It is so much easier to make meals at home when half the work is already done and waiting on you. This definitely works for me.Head over to rocksinmydryer for more works for me ideas

I like to do this too. I buy a family pack of ground beef and chicken, cook all of it and freeze it in meal size portions. It saves so much time when I can throw together a meal is less than 30 minutes! Great post! Do you have a good recipe for marinara?
I was just thinking about a post like this when I was doing dishes earlier today. I noticed that my husband used the last of the already chopped up green onions.
When I chop green onions I always chop the whole bundle, so I won't have to chop them for each thing I want them for...
Come by my place today to see how you can Cruise through the Holidays, in my WFMW.
Have a Great Day!

I used about 5 roma tomatoes 1 small can of tomato sauce. 1 clove of garlic, onion powder (I am out of onion), dried oregano and dried basil. This made a pretty small amount about 1 1/2 cups.
