In an effort to stay South Beach friendly (Ken and I are coming up on our 1 year anniversary of SB!), I’m trying to plan some make-ahead and freeze meals for during the week.  Our time is so short in the evenings that I don’t want to spend all this extra time making dinner.   Tonight, for example, I made sloppy joes (with ground turkey on 100% whole wheat buns).  I doubled the batch so we had tonight’s dinner and then froze the rest for another night.  Awesome.  All I need is the extra buns!  (Which are hard to find!  I used to buy some from Wal*Mart but after finding them moldy on the shelves – yuck – I buy them elsewhere now.)  Tomorrow I’m planning a double-batch of chili for the same routine – eat and freeze!

While browsing the internet tonight, I found an awesome website that I encourage all of you to try, if you haven’t already!  It’s at about.com under busy cooks:    http://busycooks.about.com/od/makeaheadrecipes/a/freezecasserole.htm.  I can’t wait to get started filling my freezer again and having new recipes to try! If you have any to share, please feel free to!  Anything South Beach friendly would be much appreciated!
