So, what's in your prepared food stockpile?

[dflanag2]

I need inspiration! I have just exhausted my meal stockpile and I am really glad that I had what I had--I strained my back and couldn't do much cooking for about a week, so we dug in the freezer and ate everything I had prepared previously and frozen. Now I am working to rebuild the supply because it is so nice to have all that food on hand when I am desperate!

Here is what I have 'rebuilt' this week:

marinated salmon (froze half of salmon recipe I made for dinner)
marinated chicken thighs (same thing)
1 large and 3 small whole wheat banana breads (we were drowning in brown bananas!)

I also want to make the following:
Bone soup (use to cook or as base for other soups)
Minestrone
Quinoa soup (got recipe here on MDC)
Whole wheat Apple cake--like coffee cake (have cooking apples from CSA, need to use, but aren't v good for eating, plan to split 9x13 recipe between two small pans to have 2 cakes)
Lasagna (I freeze it in individual portion sizes)
Quesadillas (I fold refried beans and cheese in whole wheat tortillas, freeze, then heat for a fast lunch)

What do you like to have on hand? :

Hi there~

I like to have the following things in hand:

any kind if 'creamed' vegetable soup - at the moment we have zucchini-mushroom and potato-carrot soup
marinated meats for grilling/pan-frying (filet of lamb , chicken wings and breast as well as filet of pork)
choclate-zucchini bread (this is extremly yummy and I can give it to my kids without feeling guilty )
And I plan in preparing some burger patties (fish and meat).

not truely pre-made food but very useful:
shredded cheese (all the odds and end of the fridge get shredded once in a while
pre-cooked frozen seafood mix which I made into some kind of paella this evening
frozen talipia filet
frozen spinach
toast and sliced ww bread

When I awaited the arrival of DS this past April (he came on May 18 *lol) I also prepared lots of Bolognese Sauce, Goulash Soup, Chicken Stock, shredded cooked chicken+carrot slices (from cooking the chicken for stock), rice pilaf.



HTH!
