You can always taste food toward the end of cooking and adjust the seasonings, if it seems like there's not enough. I'm sure the beans will be fine though.

here's a couple suggestions I don't think have been mentioned:

cabbage roll casserole.~layer cabbage, ground beef and rice..cover with spag. sauce or tomato sauce and bake.

Stuffed peppers~same concept. Mix raw ground beef with rice..stuff in peppers...cover with choice of sauce and bake.

I think your boys will have their hands full just keeping the place clean and dishes done.~I realize that you just want meals you can put in the freezer...bake and eat with minimal preperation.

chicken alfredo casserole...cook cut up chicken...steam broccoli...use bowtie pasta..and cook el dente. Mix together with alfredo sauce and freeze. Defrost before baking in fridge.

Hope these help~!

I just found [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0XTcdPeF_mg&feature=related"]this[/ame] video on YouTube, and thought I'd share it here. She's not sharing recipes, but there's plenty of ideas here. I notice she's using one of the Fix-It And Forget It cookbooks...all of the books by Phyllis Pellman Good are great resources. Now I want to go browse through my collection(I have four or five of her books) and see what frozen crockpot dinners I can make...

I just donated the Fix It and Forget It cookbook. I've had it for years and I don't think I ever made a single thing from it. Isn't it funny how subjective opinions are about cookbooks? Like artwork, I guess.

I use a Crock-Pot at least twice a week, so that's not why I didn't use the cookbook.

Of course! That's why there are 80 gazillion cookbooks out there for us to buy
