Tribute to Food Club

Top 10 reasons why I love the food club:

10-Fun way to be involved

9-Multiplying the recipe by 5 wasn't too bad

8-Pan size is large enough that we usually have leftovers for lunch

7-Saved us while we were moving

6-Allows us to try new things

5-Can put it in freezer and save for another day, if so desired

4-Saves $$

3-Saves Time

2-FREE FOOD!

1-My favorite thing about Food Club is when I'm like: "Crap, I don't know what we are going to have for dinner... Wait! We have Food Club tonight!!"

I may be breaking rule #1 of the food club (there is no food club and we don't speak of it), but I LOVE THE FOOD CLUB! What is food club? Well there are 5 ladies, including myself, that are participating this time. Basically, once every 2 1/2 weeks I cook the main dish for 5 families. That is it. What do I get in return? Food delivered to my front door twice a week. Doesn't that create a problem with pans? No, because we all bought 3 identical pans at the start. At the end, we'll just make sure everyone is left with 3 pans. [Technically we only needed 2 pans each-for details, see the first comment for this post.]

Last night was our first time to cook for the food club. I was worried, but willing to give this "Food Club" idea a try. We made Italian Chicken and Couscous (except we only stuck chicken in ours because we have vegetarians in the club). It worked like a charm...other than Jon took over and I didn't get to help much...
