A friend of mine who had a particularly difficult first few weeks when her baby was born sat and ate the entire container I brought (at least 3-4 huge servings) cold, right while I sat there and talked to her. But it also freezes easily.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5552184.post-23583873118935696822008-05-08T17:33:00.000-04:002008-05-08T17:33:00.000-04:00Hm, if it's so hot maybe a cold soup, like a curri...Hm, if it's so hot maybe a cold soup, like a curried-zucchini yogurt kind of thing, or gazpacho. Or one of those good Moosewood curries? Another direction to go is to make a big batch of pesto and freeze it in chunks for them to thaw as needed. I think lasagne is good no matter the weather, as is a pan of enchiladas. I just made a big batch of granola for a friend in need -- not a meal, it's true, but granola or your homemade muesli with some yogurt and fruit would likely make any of your friends very happy, too. Lucky them!Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13478452418420194351noreply@blogger.com
