This is the first full week without school. I am still teaching a night class, but having the days free makes life more relaxing. Just because the days are free, does not mean I want to be cooking all day. Well, maybe sometimes. I like to use my time to be organized so that I can enjoy the free time.
Today I made a large batch of waffles and put many in the freezer. They will be gone before the week is over, so that is a task I will have to repeat. Only the boys will be home for dinner so I put a batch of Bourbon Meatballs in the crockpot. After class, I will snack on them.
Last week, I took my two youngest children strawberry picking. Freezer jam is made and ready. Also, while at the farm, I picked up eggplant and peppers. I roasted the peppers and eggplant with onion, salt, pepper, garlic and olive oil. Again, I did a large batch for the freezer. I use the roasted veggies in rice or pasta or on top of a pizza crust.
Tomorrow's plan: Ribs
