So thankful

I am so thankful to have a pantry full of food, and things that are already prepared in my freezer. For lunch today, we had some chicken and stuffing I made about a month ago, and froze it, wrapped in foil after we had eaten a meal or two of it. I thawed it in the refrigerator, and that was our main dish. I have canned green beans in my pantry, so I added a few onion slices, and a little bacon grease to season them. I also found a jar of pickled beets. Bob has been craving pickled beets. It was a very fast lunch to prepare and Bob ate well and is now napping again. It seems like a win all around.

I think so, too. I'm glad you found something to try.

It helps to not have to think too hard about a meal.

@kaylachan We have better things to do, taking care of spouses and kitties.

It is harder for Bob. But if I am at home he eats well.

I don’t believe I have ever had pickled beets, but I’d like to try them.

It is a southern thing. If you like sweet pickles you would probably like them. I learned to eat them as an adult. When they are pickled things like cloves and allspice berries are in the brining solution.

I love having some meals in the freezer that can be on the table in short order. It often just helps so much. Glad that you and Bob had a nice dinner together.
