  1. A friend who has fallen on hard times needs some help with
    prepared meals. Because of immune system problems, they can
    only eat meals that have been cooked and then fully frozen.
    We could make heavy meals like lasagna, stews or soups. But
    we were wondering if anyone has suggestions for lighter,
    summer fare that can be cooked and then frozen. Thanks for
    any input...

    Filled crepes freeze well. I like the ham & cheese variety
    or chicken mushroom crepes. Quesadillas are good and also
    freeze well; you can make them with a variety of fillings. A
    fav of mine is simply spinach & mushroom with some Oxaca or
    Asagio cheese.

    These things easily reheat in the oven or a toaster oven;
    thaw in the fridge then about 20 minutes in moderate heat.

    Anything which allows stock to be made. The other night
    I ate meaty prime rib bones as BBQ and then used the
    bones to make a nice beef stock after tossing in some
    carrots, celery, onion, a bay leaf and some garlic. To
    the stock I added noodles and had a nice beef noodle
    soup the next day. Yum!

    Best of luck to your friend.

    Did you get this idea from a doctor or dietician, or come up
    woth it on your own? Seriously. You may be going to a lot of
    trouble for no benefit.

    I thought it sounded rather bizarre also...

    It's certainly a peculiar requirement... I wonder if the OP
    is concerned about bacteria growing in the food during the
    time between cooking and transporting it to the recipient...
    since they didn't come back to reply we'll never know!

    It does sound very weird, doesn't it.
