When I cook a meal say with mince or beef I make extra use one and freeze the rest . Then you just need to boil veg or whatever you want to go with it . Also I strip the chicken and use a sweet and sour or any cooking sauce and freeze in portions for one .
A lot of the old folk here use Wiltshire farm foods, you can get a menu brochure and order by phone. I sometimes resort to ready meals mostly from Iceland
thanks all - as I have said not for me but for somebody else and don't think he could afford the Wiltshire dinners but I think I will cook some meats - then freeze those. x
