The idea of making meals in advance and freezing them is appealing, but because most recipes are not really intended to be prepared then stored, as opposed to eaten, taking the time to make these "extra" meals can seem like a daunting task. This new cookbook, Dream Dinners, is entirely geared towards these make-ahead meals. It was written by the two women who already turned the concept into a profitable enterprise with Dream Dinner stores where busy people (families or otherwise) can come in and prepare healthy, tasty foods in advance to take home.
All of the recipes in the book can be prepared in two ways. The first way makes up one dish for that night's dinner, while the other makes three meals' worth of food, so two portions can be frozen for future evenings. Naturally, the focus is on preparing the meals in advance and not necessarily on the meal just ahead. In addition to main dishes, there are also salads, soups and a handful of desserts to keep things interesting. Check out two sample recipes for Caribbean Pork over Rice and Pork Tenderloin with Pears to give you an idea of the techniques used in the book.
