Tonight was our first night of our dinner exchange group. Someone from our ward brought us 5 frozen dinners when I was on bedrest, and we got the details of their group and started our own.
There are 5 of us, and each month we make 6 meals- 5 to exchange and 1 to give away. We get together on the second Tuesday of every month to visit for an hour and exchange meals. Then we have an extra meal to give to someone in need. It has to serve 6 people or fit in a 9 x 13 pan. We all bought the same pans, so we don't have to return them, we just re-exchange them.
This month we got:
Lasagne Pinwheels
Turkey Pillows
Chicken Wontons
Gourmet Macaroni and Cheese
Chicken Enchiladas
It was really fun, and I am excited to have 5 meals in the freezer that I can pull out any time I need to.

So fun! I am doing something similar w/ my next door neighbor and really like it. I want to expand it to include others so you get more bang for your buck! :-)
That is such a great idea! I'll have to start something like it when we get into our new neighborhood!
Ok, so this sounds like a good idea. I'm about to start a freeze ahead meals group with about 5 other girls in my ward but it's much more complicated than your way! I think I need to get some more details from you and compare.
