So it looks like we won't have any/much help at all when the baby comes. I'm sure some friends and family will drop a couple of dishes off, but nobody will be staying with us or doing our laundry, cooking for us, or anything like that, like I had previously thought (see a previous post of mine about how my parents are having plastic surgery 2 and 6 weeks before my due date, shit you not...).
So, I'm starting Operation Frozen Meals in like, 2 weeks. I have a list of what I think i will like (why is healthy food so hard to pre-make and freeze?!) but was wondering if any of you had anything that was just AMAZING and so fantastic to just heat and eat in the weeks after you brought your newborn home. I've never been much of a frozen meal cooker, so this is WAY outside my element!
I have: chicken soup, miyuk-guk, meatballs, spaghetti sauce, breakfast burritos, muffin, various marinated meats (so we can just thaw and DH can grill), a breakfast egg type thing, some various slow cooker type meals i can just dump into the crockpot and turn on....(i don't like creamy casseroles, btw)
What else was a Godsend?!
Now that I'm nearly in my third tri I'm going to start making some things and freezing them, and they are top on my list! Somehow they taste better after being frozen. Her recipe isn't anything top secret - its pretty much identical to all the white chicken enchilada recipes on Pinterest. You can make it as healthy or unhealthy as you like!
