For Christmas this year, we gave Raj's family some of our time in the form of a day full of helping them make meals ahead and freeze to have available.
We spent last Saturday and Sunday with them taking inventory of what they had, buying a few groceries to complete meals, cooking the meals, and then finally dividing the food in the meal size portions and freezing it. We were exhausted after the two days, but very proud of what we were able to get done. We hope this will help them through out the next month with dinner planning. We all had such a nice time, we are going to try and do it each month this year.
Here are some pictures of the event:

This is a picture of some of the food we made. All together we made the following: Minestrone soup, Chicken broth, Chili, Brazilian Black beans, a Chicken and rice dish, Spaghetti Sauce, saute' d onions and mushrooms to have a head to make omelets with, Muffins, and cookies.
