For example:
Husband: Do we have anything to make for dinner?
Wife: I think we have some odds and ends, but I don't really know. (i.e. can't we just go get something? like pickles?)
Husband: Hmmm well what's in there?
THEN you make a dinner that he LOVES with crap from the freezer. He is going to get spoiled!
I had:
Chicken thighs
Homemade spaghetti sauce
Cheese ravioli
Green beans
I thawed the chicken for about an hour in some water in the sink. Once it was thawed I put salt and pepper on it and started it in the skillet in a little oil.
Once the chicken was nice and browned and almost finished, I removed it from the pan. At this point I had water almost to a boil. I threw the green beans into the skillet with the chicken jus and the oil and let them get going.
I thawed the sauce in the microwave in a bowl while all this was going on.
Once the water was boiling, I tossed the ravioli in the pot and put the chicken back in the skillet to finish cooking.
The finish product came out like this:
And dammit, it was really tasty.
Now he will expect magic meals to appear on the table with no grocery shopping all the time!
