cooking in BULK ideas

Hi there looking for meals or food I can cook larger amounts of to portion to freeze or eat in the week.. not chicken or meats like full blown meals that are lean protein.

One of my favorites. Makes six servings. I bought some small glass containers that can be cooked in, then can go right in to the fridge for storage (they come with lids), then pop in to the microwave at work to re-heat. 16.5g protein, 250cals each, very filling!

Lasagne, quiche, Chili con carne, all types of casseroles.

Crock Pot! chilli, curries, stews, etc. Easy to reheat in the microwave or saucepan and if you need to bulk out the meal on the day just boil up some rice to go with it. A medium sized crock pot will cook about 6 good portions so some to eat over the coming week and some for the freezer for later.

This is one of my favourite crock pot recipes. Obviously you could add some lean meat or seafood if you prefer. http://veganvillage.co.uk/recipes/beanstew.htm
