Freezer-Hero Beef & Lentil Ragu with Rigatoni
A double-batch beef and lentil ragu engineered for the freezer - tonight's dinner plus three future ones, all iron-forward.
Deep, familiar comfort food with a recovery agenda: serious protein in a bowl you can eat one-handed, which is what the healing weeks keep asking for. The long simmer is the only real work, and it happens once, on your schedule rather than the baby's.
