Here are some of the recipes I use when I prepare meals ahead.
Fish Parcels. We haven't actually made these since I posted the recipe. I just don't get to our fish shop much and the supermarkets don't have fresh fish often.
Pasties.
Schnitzels.
Tuna Mornay.
Spaghetti sauce:
2 onions
750 grams mince meat.
1 tin tomato soup
1 tin diced tomatoes
salt, pepper, oregano and any other spices you want.
Dice onions and cook till transparent.
add mince and spices and cook till mince is well done.
Add tomato soup and diced tomatoes.
Once sauce has boiled, remove from heat.
Allow to cool to room temperature and put in freezer.
I remove from freezer and defrost in the fridge for 24 hours. I cook our spaghetti for about 5 minutes and then do a layer of sauce, a layer of spaghetti and a layer of grated cheese. I finish with a layer of cheese and bake in the oven till cheese is melted. Usually about 15 minutes.
Lasagna:
I make the same sauce as the spaghetti and also make a cheese sauce. On cooking day, we do layers again but with instant lasagna noodles. I really hate lasagna sheets that need to be pre cooked. I just cannot work with them.
