Hooray for freezers! I was out at a reading last night, that was supposed to run from 6:30 to 8 but didn't finish until about 9:15 (but it was all food writing, so I couldn't leave early ). Fortunately, I had planned ahead and pulled out to thaw a container with:
2 thick slices of corned beef
a few large chunks of turnips
2 potatoes
a lot of broth

Dumped it into a saute pan and in 5 minutes, hot and ready! Served with Dijon and grainy mustards, pickled diced onions, and salad that my husband had made while waiting for me to get home. And beer.
