This is a truly amazing concept for parents who want to give their families home-cooked meals but do not have the time for grocery shopping or kitchen clean-up.  Did you know that you can visit someone else’s kitchen area, have all the supplies you need, and make dinners to take home and freeze until you need them?  Read on to learn more…

This might not work for everyone, but I know that whenever I hear one of those public service announcements about having dinner with your kids, I have to wonder how that is supposed to work logistically when a simple grocery visit can take one hour in a large city.  A couple of companies have promoted the concept of visiting their facilities to make several dinners and take them home to freeze.  Dreamdinners.com and Supersuppers.com offer this service, each with a different twist, and they seem to cover slightly different geographic areas.  The idea is that you plan your menus online, then visit, and in a couple of hours you have made dinners that can average as low as $3/person.  This type of arrangement may be just what your household needs to introduce menu variety or get off the fast food track.
