I'm always skeptical about spicy/tomato-based dishes (if you're planning on breastfeeding) because neither of my babies tolerated that stuff when they were little bitty.

I've made it several times and it's wonderful. You do have to remember to thaw it before cooking, but otherwise it's simple to prep and make. Since I'm not diabetic I don't worry about finding no-sugar added dried cherries. And I don't add the lemon zest, just the juice. <br /><br />Also, I found <a href="http://makeaheadmeals.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">100 Make Ahead Meals</a> to be a good spot for recipes. They never quite made it to 100 but some of the ones there are simple and tasty and they tell you which ones are good for freezing.Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11394617623909746445noreply@blogger.com
