[quote=Anonymous]Make more bean and lentil based meals. I cook a few cups of brown rice in the rice cooker each week and make a big batch of some sort of bean and vegetable stew. A little goes in the freezer, i eat it for lunch, send it with my toddler to eat for lunch, and we get a couple dinners out of it for both this week and some point in the future when we don't want to cook. Some suggestions: dal, spanish chickpeas w/spinach, hoppin john, split pea with ham and ginger, tofu with vegetables, chili, black bean soup (make refried beans and enfrijoladas at the same time), white bean and rosemary. Pasta and enchiladas work well like this too. I always try to have 2-3 things at home I can cook really quickly (often something to accompany the above) and at least one thing already made. Frozen vegetables are your friend because you can keep a lot in the house and they need no prep time.[/quote]
