I know people who still distrust nuking food in the microwave. I like slow cookers. Used to take me three hours to prep and cook dinner. I can do it in two now but if I take out the frozen beans I precooked from dry and season them they are ready in half an hour.
Ahhhh, that's what i need to do. I need to make some dried beans and then freeze them in portion sizes. Actually, one of the smartest things i've done to eat better is put "meals" in mason jars. I have black beans with brown rice and tomatoes right now. I have a feeling it's going to help me get thru the next couple of days trying to eat vegan again. I tho't there was a Trader Joe's near here but it's not showing up on the net. Maybe dh remembers where it is. (I'm out of town.)
I can freeze soups in servings sizes as well. That will be a big help when i work for a week or two straight during the holiday season.
