In today's fast-paced society fast food can easily take the place of good home cooking. With the help of one of the most underused appliances in most peoples kitchen--the freezer--anyone can make and preserve about two weeks worth of delicious home-cooked meals in a matter of hours! Jessica Fishers Not Your Mothers Make-Ahead and Freeze Cookbook provides the key to doing so. Fisher serves up more than 225 recipes for delectable breakfasts, lunches, and dinners with the secret weapon of 'batch cooking' , which saves both time and money. This cookbook puts a modern spin on the age-old idea of freezing meals for later, and appeals to today's diverse tastes . You'll find recipes for not only chicken, beef, and pork, but also fish, shellfish, and vegetarian main courses. Fisher also details how to go about using the freezer to its full potential, giving information on the best freezer bags, how to thaw food safely after it has been frozen, and how to make a week-long or two-week-long meal plan for your family.
