[quote=Anonymous]Sometimes I'll start something in the crock pot in the morning, but those aren't really my favorite meals. More likely, I do all the prep ahead of time (night before for me, but morning would work also) for things that cook really quickly. For example, tonight we are having chicken fajitas. Last night I sliced all the veggies and put them in one container, sliced the chicken and put it in another container with seasonings, and set aside a small container of garlic and seasonings for black beans. This morning I put dried black beans in the crock pot with the seasonings. When I get home tonight, it'll take 10 minutes tops to heat a cast iron skillet, stir the chicken around on high heat, add the veggies, done. Sometimes I also prep a casserole of some sort, and have my teens pop it in the oven when they get home from after-school practice. It's ready to eat by the time DH and I walk in the door. [/quote]
