My daughter Michelle is due with her first child within 8 weeks!! How exciting is that?!! She would like to stock her freezer before baby comes so we are gearing up for a month of freezer meal prep day this Saturday.
That has a lot more detail than this but I thought I'd share my latest little trick to fast meal prep having the bbq'er in the house help!
Last week while shopping at Costco, Fred and I decided we would buy meat to bbq vs. meat to put in casseroles etc. We found pork loin chops and pre-thin sliced carne asade beef round meat for just about $3 a pound. I brought it home, found three sauces I thought I could build a meal around and started bagging! The pork was a little thick so I sliced those in half. It's not unusual for us to have company so some bags have 4 pieces of meat vs. 2. All told, I have 40 pieces of meat for $40. I didn't think a $ per serving was bad, the meat is marinated and Fred can help bbq while I make the salad!
