Winco has a deal that if you purchase $50.00 in groceries you can purchase a turkey for .26lb a pound. I just purchased a 27 pounder. I hope it will fit in my roaster. The total cost is only a little over $7. I'm going to find many ways to make this bird stretch. I love congratulating myself on… MORE

About this Cook
I am a stay-at-home mome who loves to cook. I don't have time everynight to cook so those nights I pull from my freezer. Freezer cooking more than a hobby for me, its a way of life. Team Up with my friends has helped so many manage meal time chaos that I started a web site to explain 'how to' and provide encouragement. ( www.dinnercoach.com ) My life is filled with my full-time job, raising three active boys who are 5, 3, and 2. They bring joy and meaning to my life. I can't imagine a more fulfilling role than being a mother. Good job to all who are investing their lives into raising the next generation. I also help my husband in his many endeavors.

My cooking tragedies
I'm always throwing things together. Sometimes it’s terrible and sometime it works out great. I did have a mishap a few weeks back. I was baking some muffins and the part of a pie I had cooked earlier overflowed to the bottom of the oven and was still there and started on fire. It took my mom, sister-in-law and I to put it out after some screaming. That was memorable.

Pumpkin Pancakes
Nice flavor and texture to these pancakes. I lowered cholesterol by using 2 egg whites instead of 1 egg. Chocolate chips sprinkled on the pancakes before flipping added a yummy flavor...of course. I'm sure these will freeze nicely and can be reheated in the microwave or toaster. Enjoy!

Make Ahead Lunch Wraps
This recipe is great. I make these wraps and sometimes add chicken. The freeze great and can be wrapped individually for convenient lunch or after school snack. I've also taken several from the freezer, placed in a pan, covered with our favorite mango salsa and baked until hot throughout. Top with cheese the last 10 minutes. An easy dinner option. A great TEAM UP recipe.
