MommytoFour:

Sauteed Zucchini
-2 Tbsp oil
-1 onion, diced
-2 garlic cloves, crushed
-2 zucchini, cut into thin half moons
-coarse salt and pepper to taste

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Saute onion and garlic for 2 minutes.
Add zucchini and saute for 10 minutes.
(I undercook and freeze this up to 2 weeks in advance, no longer.)

Potato Puffs
http://imamother.com/forum/vie.....atoes
does not taste as good frozen (I like them fresh straight out of the oven), but I still have frozen ones from RH

Strawberry Pastry Cups - Q&K
-4 oz Parve cream cheese
-2 cups prepared (thick) vanilla pudding
-1 1/2 tsp lemon juice
-16 mini pastry shells
-6 strawberries, sliced

Beat cream cheese with mixer until soff and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in vanilla pudding for about 1 minute. (I'm doing this on YT by hand with cream cheese softened at room temperature, and using a whisk.)
Spoon filling into pastry shells. Garnish with sliced strawberries. (I'm using frozen whole strawberries to garnish.)

(Most of my desserts this time around are these simple to assemble kinds.)

Apricot Teriyaki Glazed Roast Beef and Vegetables - KBD SOT
I'm using a 3 lb roast, and also adding chicken pieces to the pan. We're serving the chicken and vegetables for supper, and putting away the roast for YT.

2 acorn squash, with skin, seeded, cut into 2" chunks
2 large sweet potatoes, with skin, cut into 2"chunks
1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
1 large red onion, cut into chunks
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 tsp fine sea salt

4-5 lb. silver tip or rib eye roast
12 oz. apricot preserves
1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
1 Tbsp yellow mustard
1/4 tsp ground ginger

Place squash and sweet potato into large roasting pan. Sprinkle with cranberries and scatter red onion. Drizzle with oil and salt.
Place roast to sit on top of vegetables.
Whisk together apricot jam, teriyaki, mustard and ginger. Pour over roast, allowing sauce to run down the sides.
Roast uncovered for 30 minutes.
Reduce heat to 330 and bake uncovered for 1-1/2 to 2 hours.
Allow to stand 15 minutes before slicing to allow juices to settle back into center.

I'm doing similar with the green beans (frozen) and sugar snap peas (frozen) and carrots (fresh) Smile

But those are going in a pan on the plata directly (not in a double boiler), and uncovered.
