I’ve started writing out a little list of recipes to make and freeze ahead so that we have a few solid weeks of meals at the ready without too many trips to the grocery store.  Hartmans + newborn = blah.   Then again, that’s what husbands are for, right?  Either way, I figure we’ll both be a bit zonked so the less we need to think about, the better.

So far, I’m definitely going to whip up my tweaked-out version of lasagna from Eat, Shrink and Be Merry,  sweet potato burritos, and maybe some meatballs.  But I need more ideas.  I’ve never been a casserole baker and suddenly I feel the need to fill the freezer with casseroles.  Casserole is Italian for “meals moms freeze”, right?

So, a little Googling led me to this thread on Serious Eats about the best meals to freeze, but maybe you have better ideas.  Maybe even a favourite casserole recipe?  If so, let me know!  I’d love to get some of these meals made during this welcome cool weather spell in Ottawa… because I know that Ottawa + August = no cooking.
