Hi Bill,

 RH> You don't want to fill up the fridge or freezer with left overs
 RH> either. It would save you from having to cook as often, but storage
 RH> space has to be considered too. (G)

 BS> I have a standup type freezer that I keep full, sorta.  This way when
 BS> I hit a spot where I can't/don't want to cook I can graze the freezer.

We have a chest freezer, filled with all sorts of odds and ends. As of
now, there's not a lot of pre done meals in there but a lot of things
that would be components of meals. Some of it could be used as is, some
added to other things to make up a meal.


 BS> Odd thing, on Sunday I cooked up a batch of beef stew, froze 4 pints.
 BS> On Monday I cooked up to pork chile verde, froze 4 pints.  Tuesday I
 BS> cooked up some Spags/gravy, froze 4 pints.  Tomorrow I'm going to cook
 BS> up the aforementioned soup.  This time, oddly enough, I will double
 BS> it.  Which should get me a quantity to freeze.  Earlier I'd made some
 BS> GP burrito type stuff, which never made it to the freezer.  I spend

Understandable, and cooking for one is not an easy job. It's so much
easier to cook a big batch of something & sub divide it into individual
meals. Works well for just Steve and me too.
