Default Re: Does anyone here do ONCE-A-MONTH cooking????

I've tried the OAMC & it didn't work well for me. I could never carve out the time it took in one session. I've got disabled kids around all the time & when I did have a day off, cooking wasn't my activity of choice.
I do, however, do the double, triple batch type event as often as possible. There are usually just 3 of us here now, so not cooking for a tribe any longer.......But, I will still cook several chickens, a couple roasts, a whole turkey & then package the parts we didn't use for the current meal. Makes for painless cooking ahead for me.
I do the same for baked goods, just double or triple and freeze what we don't use right away.
Love having at least parts of meals in the freezer...........then, I can add the fresh items & pull out a dessert.
