Subject: RE: BS: What've You Been Cooking Lately?
I am just about done cooking up a storm for my 90 year old Nana who is now home, living alone, after a little over a year in the nursing home. She is doing ok on her own but she doesn't like to cook for herself and is living on sodium laden premade tv dinners. I am going to visit her for a few days and have decided to take as many homemade frozen meals as I can for her. I have 15 containers of food for her, each holding 2 servings of food that she will be able to unthaw and toss in the microwave (I prefer the oven and stove but she won't use them so this will work for her). I made Beef BBQ, Shepherd's Pie, Chicken Casserole, Turkey Soup (her favorite), Beef Stew and Stuffed Shells. I am working on something sweet (she always has dessert after her breakfast) that will freeze and keep nicely. :) Freezer space is limited (in fact, either her neighbor or my aunt will be keeping all but 3 containers and deliver the others to her as needed).

If you have any classic homemade meals that freeze nicely and you'd like to share...I'll be listening!!!
