5 Easy Recipes That Are Perfect To Take To A Friend In Need

One of the best parts about Wyoming is that we are always willing to lend a helping hand.

It's even written into the Code Of The West "Do what needs to be done."

When my son broke his arm last year in a football game (resulting in 2 plates and 11 screws) I had several friends who dropped off meals for us.

They were ones that could be eaten immediately, or easily frozen for later, and I can't tell you enough what a blessing it was for our family.

When you're already emotionally exhausted the last thing you want to do is cook.

If it's something like a long-term illness, it can definitely get old to be eating takeout or frozen pizza every night.

When I had my preventive mastectomy a friend set up a meal train for me and it was such a relief to know that every few days we could count on a delicious home-cooked meal.

I thought it would be helpful to gather up 5 of my favorite meals that I take to a friend in need. Some of them can easily be made into vegetarian dishes and ALL of them are kid-tested and approved.

They can be eaten the same day you drop them off or frozen and used later.
