Uh.... my comment disappeared? Anyway, Archer made this last night (I was out) and everybody LOVED it (including me when I got back). AWESOME flavor. The only complaint was that they wanted more sauce!

Some Guidelines

Give us an idea of what you're bringing by commenting on next month's "Menu" post.

Entrees should feed 4 adults.

Package your meal either in freezer bags or disposable aluminum pans. Push out as much air as possible and freeze bags flat; cover pans with plastic wrap and foil. Include what you would need to complete the entree if it's not in the main body (i.e. noodles for spagetti sauce, tortillas for tacos, buns for Sloppy Joes) but don't provide side dishes.

Label: 1) what the meal is, 2) preparation instructions, 3) date it was frozen (You can do this by writing on the package (before it's filled!) with permanent marker or including a slip of paper)

Do your best to bring meals frozen as it can be cumbersome and messy to handle a number of soft meal packages. However, if you just couldn't get to the kitchen until the day of the meeting we'd rather carry your dinner sloshing around in the cooler than not have it at all!
