30 or so meals in one day

I must admit, I have never tried making 30 meals in one day. I would love to watch someone do it. Is it really possible to make enough food for a month for dinner for 7 people? Or are these programs geared to a family of 4? That means I would have to DOUBLE everything! Gosh, that means I would effectively be making 60 meals in one day. (I think I'm going to faint...)

I have, very successfully, made 4 or 5 extra meals in one day. It was a little more work but not bad. I sure loved having the dinners ready to pull out and use.

I think my favorite way of making food ahead is a little at a time. When I am cooking supper, I cook more than we need and freeze the rest for another meal. I do this about once a week. Then I should have 2 or 3 dinners in the freezer at any one time to choose from. (Remember to rotate!)

With summer coming on, we need to start thinking about quick easy cheap meals that are prepared without heating up the kitchen.

Personally, I only like eating jello about once or twice a year, so summer meals at our house usually do not include jello.

One of my favorite things to do in the hot summer months is to take advantage of a cool or rainy day. On those days I will do a bunch of baking, cooking, etc. Then on those sweltering days, I can sit back and put my feet up (just kidding!!)
