FIRST SENTENCE: In today's busy world, families sitting down at the table for home-cooked meals is a rarity.

SUMMARY: [From BN] Cook the best, most nutritious food for your family and save time and money with this mega-delicious guide to preparing meals you can fix-and-freeze now and enjoy any night of your crazy-busy week! Unlike the sodium-laced, preservative-filled meals you might find in your grocer’s freezer aisle, the recipes in this book feature wholesome ingredients full of flavors that harmoniously come to life the instant you reheat them—so your meals don’t just taste as good as the day you stored them away, but better! From comforting casserole and lasagna recipes made new again with fresh veggies and whole grains, to show-stopping breakfast baked goods and sweet treats, you’ll discover so many “must-make” recipes inside that you may need to consider a larger freezer!

THOUGHTS: Nom nom nom. The introductory information in the books is pretty scant, but I enjoyed the tips on how to freeze stuff... since that's what this book is about. The recipes are put together in a simple, easy-to-understand manner. Many of them look incredibly tasty. (I went on a tagging spree for stuff to find later.) And, while this book is mainly about making large meals, the recipes were written in such a way that I could easily half them. That said, I still feel like I need to make space in the freezer.

RATING: 6/10 [Good]
