Having the right ingredients on hand is always a plus on busy days, especially when the husband gets off the phone and says "So-and-so will be stopping by in a little bit, hope that's OK!" and it happens to be around lunch time!
Now, I don't care who comes over or how long they want to stay, I will always make every effort to feed whoever is in my house when it's mealtime. However, my fridge was nearly empty. No cold cuts for sandwiches, not even a can of tuna in the pantry. I did have plenty of salad greens, however, including a few tomatoes, cukes and peppers. Oh look - a small bit of cheddar cheese! Then I went to the freezer, and wouldn't you know it, the sandwich/salad portions of sliced grilled chicken were all piled up in there, smiling at me, just waiting to be thawed! So we had marvelous salads with cheddar cheese and grilled chicken - and I didn't even have to grill any chicken!
Fill that freezer, folks, with whatever you can to make your life easier!
