What a great idea! I'd love to see some vegetarian options that can be made ahead and possibly frozen. Maybe even some without pasta, which we inevitably seem to eat 2 X a week.

Awesome ideas Ameena! The plan ahead freezer meals seem to be popular-- I need to work on that! And vegetarian freezer meals -- even better!

Heather, you are AMAZING. It feels awesome to see how much Sugar Dish has grown and I'm so happy to have seen your journey. The recipe box is so cool!! Like an app. Well, since you guys do focus on seasonal ingredients, some recipes featuring seasonal veggies and fruits and how to make the most of them...and maybe freezer meal ideas/heat and eat meals for busy working moms?

Great idea! I am looking forward to more entries in this series. How about including some dishes that could be made in a double quantity so that half could be frozen? I am so pressed for time some evenings that I find myself reaching for prepared freezer meals but I would love for those to be meals I had prepared ahead with fresh ingredients instead of the ones that come in a box or bag from the grocery store.
