The news is all abuzz with the latest winter storm coming our way, which in our town means one thing: another snow day for the kiddos. Fret? No. Plan ahead? Yes. After a lazy day spent as a family playing lots of "Settlers of Catan", tonight we enjoyed the last container of Mediterranean Beef Stew {pictured above-- "fancy" family dinner in our dining room, which in reality was just the aforementioned Mediterranean Beef Stew from our homemade freezer stash + Seeds of Change brown rice/quinoa blend + arugula salad with my favorite lemon vinaigrette but note to self: it's funny how the manners change when we walk 5 feet from the kitchen table to the dining room table and I light a few candles…anyway, dinner was "made" in the 15 minutes it took to defrost the beef stew}.
With many a ski weekend ahead, and a kind of nutty winter schedule of chauffeuring to tennis lessons, tae kwon do, and robotics team right up until dinnertime, I could use a few more nourishing family meals everyone loves at the ready. So, in anticipation of the next storm/possible snow day, I've whipped out my freezer-friendly recipes and I'll be filling my grocery cart, so if we're holed up Wednesday, at least I can crank Zac Brown up and put the day to good use restocking our freezer stash.
