We made a few key decisions at our first meeting. Here is a brief synopsis of what we discussed.
- We will be choosing 3 meals at a time to prepare over the next few months. This will give us an opportunity to keep our costs low by watching and buying ingredients when they are on sale.
- We will have a $60 cap to the dollar amount of the meals you are preparing. Do your best to make it as cheap as possible (the whole point of this group), but in rare occasions you can spend a little more on meats, etc. Should be around $50 each meal, but no more than $60.
- You will email Jen (jcrewmommy@cox.net) on the last Monday of the month your total amount spent.
- Jen will email you on Wednesday how much you will owe or be refunded at the exchange. If you owe, please bring exact change in cash since the amounts will zero out at the end.
- We will meet to exchange meals on the last Thursday of each month at 8pm at the Topaz Chapel on Pebble and Topaz.
- Everyone will have authorship on this blog. Please make comments under the recipes if they took a long time to prepare, if there were some ingredients that didn't work out, or if something didn't freeze very well.
- We will put polls up for each recipe for the month and you can vote on whether or not we will keep that recipe in our "recipe box" or if it will be retired.
- When adding recipes, please put a label on the post that begins: Recipe-blah, blah, blah. This will make it easy for us to look up the recipe when we need it.
