Over the long weekend, my friend Melly and I got together to do some bulk cooking! We had a lot of fun, but boy-howdy, it was a lot of work! We pared and chopped 10 pounds of sweet potatoes, 10 pounds of red potatoes, 10 pounds of carrots, and so on. Then we assembled four one-gallon bags (two for each of us) time nine recipes for a grand total of 36 meals! Each gallon bag is a single crockpot-worth of food, which for my family will actually be at least two meals and a lunch.

Savory Vegetable Beef Soup from The Test Kitchen of Melissa Fallis . Stephanie's Goulash also from Mama and
