I am new to the idea of meal planning & cooking in large portions. I was the type of person who went to store daily (I live literally steps away from grocery store so this wasn't an issue) & whatever I felt like that day I would buy for that day. For a beginner in this journey of planning ahead & buying larger portions at a fraction of the smaller portions & making multiple servings at once, I find this book very helpful in that it breaks down when quantities needed for doubling/tripling/etc recipes. I really enjoyed the apricot glazed chicken recipe.

I heard about this book on a radio show and checked it out from the library. EVERYTHING I MADE WAS GREAT! The best part was I had multiple meals in the freezer for other weeks that were just as terrific. It's in easy to read form. Clear and succinct. Multiple meals are in table form. It's simple to have that extra meal for drop in company, a friend in need or when you just don't feel like cooking.(For me that's alot.) If you have older kids, or a husband that can turn on the oven, it's easy to reheat You can make a large multiple and have party food or something for the church potluck. This book has everything. Drinks, appetizers, meals galore, luscious desserts and baked goods. Highly recommended.
I recently purchased "Don't Panic-Dinner's in the Freezer" and found it to be a very user-friendly cookbook with delicious recipes that you make and freeze for later. I have already made 3 recipes that my family loved! The recipes are relatively simple but have gourmet taste. The freezing process is easy and all the details are clearly explained in the book. This is a great book for busy women but also a clever way to get together with several friends and prepare meals for each family.
This book is exactally what I was looking for. It was a little overwhelming at first but then I realized I could use my own recipies and I didn't need to take up an entire day preparing meals. It would be great if you had a group of friends also preparing meals in advance. I found most of the recipies to be fairly easy to make and tweek for picky eaters.
I bought this book hoping it would help me come up with some different freezer ideas. This book contains a good variety of realistic recipes. It contains helpful tips and details. The book also includes conversions so that the reader knows how much of each ingredient to purchase - depending on how many servings of each recipe you want to make. This book may make life easier. I'm excited to try the recipes out!
