Cook Once, Eat Twice

October 23, 2008

in Menus & Item Lists

A Zesty Cook has the best 8 tips for saving time in meal preparation.  I’m especially interested in #3:  Cooking Once, eating twice.  Doesn’t that sound like a great plan?  Already we do this half-way.  We usually cook an extra portion for Mike to take in his lunch.  This week, I’m going to try these two “pairs” of dishes:

Salmon:  poached lemon salmon & rice; salmon chunks with brown rice pasta and roasted vegetables

Lean Ground Beef:  Tacos (without the shells are very healthy); Spaghetti with brown rice pasta and primavera sauce.

Do you have some good ideas for me?  I’d love any of your blog links to take a look!

Thanks for the shoutout… your meail ideas look great. Another thing I noticed for lunches that may work are casseroles… very easy to heat up and still taste great.

thanks for sharing
