Help with Weekly Meals
On Sundays, my husband and I cook our meals for the week. We usually cook one-pot wonders, casseroles and/or soups/stews. We have also done burritos in bulk and freezed them and this has worked pretty well. We try to do more than one a week so that we have some variety. A lot of our meals end up being tomato-based which is usually not a problem. However, I was recently on some medication that really did a number on a my stomach and now its sensitive to acidic foods.* Now, I could have a ginger candy after having an acidic meal and usually I am ok but sometimes this hasn't been the most successful. I am turning to you all for some suggestions on what we should cook for the week. Requirements: being one of the type of dishes listed above, not be too acidic (so tomato-based is pretty much out), and must freeze well. I have several cookbooks, so if you know a recipe from one of those that would be awesome and I'll list what we have made from them because 1) hopefully that will give you an idea of what we like and 2) just in case someone wants to know what we have made from these books and what recipes have been good and not so good. Also, neither of us are a fan of meat replacements like seitan or anything processed. My husband is also not a fan of fake cheese. Also, if its low fat or fat free, bonus points! Thanks!

Sorry for the longwinded review of my small library of cookbooks but hopefully someone will find it helpful and you'll help me out with what to make tonight. Thanks again!
*I stopped taking the medication and talked to my NP about it and she said it was the right thing to do. I am going for a follow-up appointment related to the initial injury the medication was suppose to be helping out on Tuesday.
