Vegetable Enchilada
Serves 8
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for baking dishes
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/4 cup all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
1/4 cup tomato paste
1 can (14 1/2 ounces) reduced-sodium vegetable broth
Coarse salt and ground pepper
3 cups grated pepper Jack cheese (12 ounces)
1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
1 box (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1 box (10 ounces) frozen corn kernels, thawed
6 scallions, thinly sliced, white and green parts separated
16 corn tortillas (6-inch)
Directions
Make sauce: In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium. Add 1 teaspoon cumin, flour, and tomato paste; cook, whisking, 1 minute. Whisk in broth and 3/4 cup water; bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, and cook until slightly thickened, 5 to 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
Make filling: In a large bowl, combine 2 cups cheese, beans, spinach, corn, scallion whites, and remaining 1 teaspoon cumin; season with salt and pepper.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly oil two 8-inch square baking dishes; set aside. Stack tortillas, and wrap in damp paper towels; microwave on high for 1 minute. Or stack and wrap in aluminum foil, and heat in oven for 5 to 10 minutes. Top each tortilla with a heaping 1/3 cup of filling; roll up tightly and arrange, seam side down, in prepared baking dishes.
Dividing evenly, sprinkle enchiladas with remaining 1 cup cheese, and top with sauce. Bake, uncovered, until hot and bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool 5 minutes; serve garnished with scallion greens.

Beef Stroganoff
made by Leah Cantaloube
For this meal I took 7+ pounds of roast beef in my large crockpot, added 7 cloves of garlic and 2 cups beef broth and cooked them on high all day. (This pot is notorious for cooking slow and it was full of meat- use your own judgment.)
I pulled out the roasts and divided them into the pans, pulling the meat apart.
Into the meat dripping I added 6 cans mushroom soup and 48 oz sour cream.
I cooked the egg noodles for three minutes and added everything into the pans with the meat. I sprinkled a bit more garlic powder and fresh ground pepper before stirring the pans and covering with foil.
I stuck them in the fridge overnight before adding them to the freezer.
To cook- thaw and cook at 350 for 35-40 minutes with the foil cover.
If the noodles seem dry after cooking, just add milk and stir - I've never tried freezing this meal, but the noodles tend to soak up the sauce if the meal sits out for long.
I used whole wheat noodles, that's all I've bought for over a year. My family didn't notice when I switched and it seemed like a good way to make our pasta meals spiked with a bit of fiber.
