[quote=Anonymous]I soak beans from dry in one big batch, then freeze half. So for example, on Sunday I made an eggplant chickpea stew, and this weekend I will make falafel with the frozen chickpeas.

Every Sunday I make a large pot of rice. I use the rice for bowls throughout the week, or stuffing vegetables, etc. Once in a while I do this with millet, farro, or bulger, but we all prefer rice, so I don't push it.

During the winter, I do a lot of stews in the crockpot, and that type of cooking lends itself well to barley, lentils, etc. I prep everything in the morning and then run out to kids activities, and then we have something waiting when we come home.

I would start with sheet-pan roasted potatoes and onions, simply seasoned (or sweet potatoes or butternut squash). This can be combined with many different things during the week.

I would also make some rice and a pot of lentils. Again, these are easy foods to combine.

Then I would make salads and bowls throughout the week, and maybe a vegetable soup at the end of the week with the leftover lentils and whatever wilt-y veg that you have.
