It sure does make meals easy on those busier days. Similar to what you said, my Grandma used to buy a huge package of ground beef and brown all of it and then freeze it all. When she needed it for a meal, she would just get out the amount she needed for the meal she was preparing. I also almost always cook enough at dinner so that we have leftovers for lunch the next day. This saves us a lot of money because we don't go out and grab fast food. <abbr><em><abbr><em>Amanda @ Mommy's Idea Books last blog post..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/MommysIdeaBook/~3/X7nfTNxTs8A/" rel="nofollow">10 Steps to Make Shopping with Kids Easier</a></em></abbr></em></abbr> I have recently started doubling almost every casserole I make so that I can freeze half.

I really like how you focus on what works for you and your family, and also not to beat yourself up when trying new things if they don't work for you. That is a great attitude to have. I have never really cooked ahead of time, too much, but I see the advantages to it and periodically try. Maybe one of these days it will stick! These are some great suggestions.
