Polish Peasant Recipes
I love cabbage and noodles! The only difference in my recipe is I saute onions, then throw in the cabbage. Dont even get me started on a pierogi conversation...they come in a close second! (I fry kielbasa and then onions and pierogies)

My first tip is to add corn starch to your flour/spice mix(salt, pepper, garlic, etc). I use a large ziploc bag for this. Wash and dry the pieces and then shake in the flour/spice/corn starch mix. Place the chicken on a foil-lined cookie sheet and place in...

Recipes for Meals to Fix and Freeze?
I agree with Darlene on this one. Whenever I cook a big meal (weekends, normally), I prepare two and freeze one. I do this for lasagne mainly. Instead of having one huge one, eat it for a few days then freeze, I make several smaller pans. Glad makes a plastic...
