Fall Nesting - Dinners for School Nights

Last weekend I took Caroline along with me to Supper Works. I'm in love with this place. It has made our weeknight meals so much more manageable. The concept is, you pick anywhere from 6-12 menu items, book a session, and then come and put it all together. Everything is prepped and ready to go. The instructions feature lots of ziplock bags. When you are all done you have a bunch of made from scratch, healthy entrees to stick in your freezer. Here we are filling up a baggie with the makings of vegetarian chili.
Caroline just loves the camera (not). We had fun though. It takes about an hour to assemble 6 meals. There's no chopping or clean up. And once you go to prepare your little feast at home, there is only a couple of pans to deal with, and dinner is ready in 20 mins. Oh bliss.


Packing up our goodies to take home. Between Supper Works, Murray's famous spaghetti bolognese sauce, and my trusty crock pot, we manage to get dinner on the table throughout the school year.
