Meal Marathon

This weekend my friend Bekah and I decided to make 4 meals to freeze and then eat over the next few weeks. We each bought ingredients for two meals (doubled) and then cooked up a storm all Saturday afternoon. In the end I think we saved time, money and the frustration of coming home from work starving and not having anything ready for dinner for our also very hungry husbands. As two full time working ladies who enjoy good food this was the perfect solution! Here was our line up:
Tamale Pie (oh the men will love this)...ground beef (or turkey) with beans, peppers, cheese and a cornbread crust
Chicken Enchiladas...tender chicken with corn and spicy peppers in a red sauce
Pasta Primavera...(my favorite of the four) tons of veggies in a creamy white wine sauce over penne pasta
Chicken and Rice Florentine...spinach and brown rice with Chicken topped with several cheeses.

Here are some photos of the extravaganza.
