Food! Food! Food! Food!

So you have four kids, you're knocked up with number five, and you're a food snob. What are you to do?

COOK and BAKE until the cows come home.

Here's the list of food we now have in the freezer for "after baby".

I have this list taped to the fridge so I can just scratch off what I already used and know what is remaining.

Ground turkey will be used for taco salads, taco soup, goulash, and spaghetti. We use rice noodle which do NOT freeze and reheat well otherwise I would have made up the goulash and spaghetti but just having the meat prepped will ever so helpful.

On pork days if it falls during the week days we have salmon. So I just cooked the time consuming sweet potatoes so we don't end up eating plain salmon and bread.

I still hope to make a double batch of french bread pizza, bacon and potato soup, and maybe some cookies and more granola.

We also have lots of stock in the freezer but I hope to make at least one more batch of that too.

Thanks to Tina for all her help on baking day!!!
