[quote=Anonymous]Some ideas I use often:

Huge pot of meat sauce - freeze in portioned containers for spaghetti. I also take the meat sauce and add some kidney beans and chili powder and voila, chili! Also as a PP suggested, make ahead and freeze some meatballs (I use turkey for this) and those can be used in several ways.

Stir fries with cut up chicken breast or beef (prep this night before) and frozen veggies + bottled sauce. Love the stir fry sauces and simmer sauces at Trader Joes.

Pork chops or chicken breast pan-seared with rice cooker rice and canned black beans heated and mixed with jarred salsa - so good.

I get the Trader Joes individually quick frozen chicken breasts/tenders and use them for so much. They thaw and cook so fast. I do buffalo chicken sandwiches, cook and chop up for chicken salads, tacos, etc. etc.

In the crockpot, you can easily do salsa chicken for tacos just by throwing in chicken breasts and jarred salsa. Also, you can do "rotisserie" chicken in the crockpot - the skin won't get crispy but the flavor is wonderful.

My best tip is to thaw/marinate/prep the night before as much as you can, so everything is ready and in the fridge when you come home and can just br thrown in the oven/grill/on the stove.
