A whole lotta cookin' goin' on

So a couple weeks ago, Dawn Hibbert, (Michael's mom), had a great idea to do some bulk cooking using a cookbook that she had. We picked three recipes and each bought enough ingredients for one recipe X 6. Then we got together and chopped and cooked up a storm! It was a really fun evening and we felt so productive! We made Taco Soup, Steak Soup and White Chili. Since each of us are only households of 2, and each recipe made enough to serve 6, we halved it when we packaged it. So we each ended up with 12 meals, 4 of each recipe. Sweet!! It's nice to have those put away in the freezer for easy meals, and also for quick meals we may want to take to someone in need. So far we've only tried the taco soup, and it was yummy! It's true what they say about many hands make light work. Thanks, Dawn, for the great idea! Reine was a good helper too!
