1 Day of Cooking Ahead equaled 4 Sunset Trips to the Beach

Remember all that cooking ahead I did last week? Angela asked me in a comment, “What do you plan on making with your beef, chicken and beans?”

Well, Angela, you asked. I ‘m answering. These are the meals I prepared and I still have some rice left in the freezer. I also baked a batch of applesauce muffins. Our pup ate well, too. I made “gourmet” doggie food, adding some of the unseasoned beef or chicken and brown rice to his dish. ‘Licked the bowl clean! (Pup, not me!)
Chicken/beans/rice enchiladas
Spaghetti
BBQ chicken pizza
Chicken & bean quesadillas
Black bean & cheese quesadillas
Chicken salad
Black Beans over Rice with smoked sausage

More cooking ahead to come for me: Another whole chicken, beef roast, dried limas, banana pecan muffins (sweetened with honey only)

Question: What do you prepare in bulk to save time later for enjoying something like this?
1 Day of Cooking Ahead = 4 Sunset trips to the beach!

    I'm not good at cooking ahead. I do well to plan one meal ahead. However, a few sunset trips to the beach are great inspiration!

    If I adopt you, will you go to the beach with me? My daughter is working and the boys don't want to go with their Mom. I know. Can you believe that?
