No Room at the Inn (or Freezer)

Living in the city and keeping the social schedule that I do, I am often eating out several times a week and so the freezer is usually not that full. In fact, recently, Markie has been using it as extra storage as his freezer is full. In fact currently he has a package of turkey sausages and a big old rack of ribs in there. I have like 4 trays of ice that take up residence on the left side and there is usually a couple of bags of frozen veggies at hand and a bottle or more of vodka chilling. One must always have a variety of flavors to offer guests. Well, last week I ordered from Amazon fresh and so there are a couple of pints of lemon sorbet and a bag of Hot Dog Buns in there. No problem, plenty of room, right?

Well, that all changed yesterday when I stopped by Savory Moment and picked up an order of food. This is the place in Redmond, WA that does some good stuff and I discovered and then they had to close for a major remodel and well, finally they are back open and offered a screaming deal for repeat customers and well, that would be me! Yes, I found a few things to put in the freezer as I am trying to eat better and not out so much...Can you say stuffed! Why yes it is. So what did I add to the freezer? Glad you asked, I have copied from their website for your reading pleasure:

MAIN COURSES

Enchilada Chicken (2 orders) - Boneless, skinless chicken seasoned with a unique blend of southwest spices. Grilled and served with our homemade black olive enchilada sauce and pepper jack cheese. (dairy packed on the side)

SIDE DISHES

Macaroni & Cheese (2 orders) - We use three different kinds of cheese to create a creamy and flavorful balance and top the pasta with crunchy breadcrumbs.
