I've decided to make use of this long holiday weekend by cooking in bulk. My first adventure? Breakfast burritos.
Cooking in bulk is a great way to have tasty, homemade food in much less time. One thing I still hate about cooking (even after overcoming my initial hatred) is how long it takes, so I'm all about saving time. It also ensure's that you have healthy options at your fingertips when crisis happens. For Ed, not having easy food around the house is a great reason to use symptoms, whether that means binging, or just not eating at all.
Here's what I used in the burritos:
Black beans (that I had frozen from the last time I cooked black beans)
Cheddar cheese
Eggs
Potatoes
Japelenos
Tortillas
I used different varieties of the above ingredients each time:
1) Potato, bean, cheese
2) Potato, bean, cheese, egg
3) Egg, bean, cheese
4) Egg, potato, cheese
Once I rolled each of the burritos up I wrapped them in wax paper and taped them closed. I labeled each one and put them all in a ziplock in the freezer.
I'd love to hear what foods you cook in bulk and other ways you save time cooking!
