[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the lentil bolognese poster!  I feel the need to come defend myself.

OP seemed to say in the beginning that frozen lasagna and salad had worked well, but she wanted something healthier.  I kind of assumed she'd want something faster too, because I know I would at that time of the night, and even reheating a lasagna takes a while.

So, I thought of another freezer meal that's much faster to reheat than lasagna, and that people who consider lasagna unhealthy, might think was healthier?  I picked another red sauce pasta dish, because red sauce pasta dishes had worked for them in the past. I didn't suggest mac and cheese, because I assumed the objection to lasagna was the cheese.

In our house, lentil bolognese is something I make in large batches and freeze so that on a busy weeknight, I can have a pasta dinner on the table in minutes.  It might not be something OP has made, but it's not hard to find a recipe. [/quote]

it’s not a normal meal to suggest. It’s a meal personal to you but I would guess most people haven’t even heard of it/had it before. It was a weird suggestion-just own it.[/quote]

That's why people come on the food board, to find recipes that they haven't heard of before.  To get suggestions that they hadn't thought of.

For packing in the car to transport on a 6 hour long drive and then reheat late at night? No. Generally yes people come for new recipes but in this context it was out of place.[/quote]
