Orders Open and Due Thursday, December 29th

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday! Ours was perfect, I love Christmas on Sunday.

Here's what is available this week:                                                                                                         
1. Baked Chicken Alfredo, $18- Chicken chunks and penne pasta covered in a delicious homemade alfredo.  But it gets better.  It's Guiltless  Alfredo.  And I promise, you won't miss out on anything with this dish except for some fat and calories.  This is one of my favorite freezer meals.

2. French Dip, $19: Tender roast beef and cheese sandwiches served on French Rolls.  Sandwiches are individually wrapped in tinfoil to be heated in the oven before serving with the delicious homemade au jus.  Probably my most popular meal.

3. Meatballs and Rice, $17:   Grandma's recipe homemade meatballs served with a creamy gravy on top of fluffy rice. This is a meal that my entire family enjoys.  Comfort food at it's finest.                                                                                                                                                                                           
4. Sweet Pork Burritos $18: Tender sweet pork, re-fried beans, cilantro-lime rice and cheese wrapped up in a flour tortilla and individually frozen.  Comes with 6 big burritos. These can be taken to work and re-heated in a microwave.

5. Pasta Fagole $16:  This is a copycat recipe of the famous soup served at Olive Garden.  It has Italian sausage, tomato-based broth, beans and vegetables. Did I mention it's really, really good?

Orders are due Thursday, December 29th.   Payment is due at pickup on Thursday, January 5th between 5-8pm.  You can order by contacting me through this blog, my email (ken1dra1@yahoo.com) texting me, or contacting me in your very favorite method. Thanks!

I'm Back! Orders Due Monday the 12th (by 10 am)

Hi everyone!  Baby is 8 weeks old now and my life is starting to go into a little better of a routine and so onto the next thing.  Orders will close on Monday the 12th at 10:00 am.  Pickup will be Thursday the 15th from 5-8 pm.    Please notice the weird pickup time, It's our anniversary coming up and I have a date with a hot guy Friday night.  Here's what I'm cooking up this time:

1. Homestyle Chicken pot pie- $18:  Tender chicken, carrots, onions, celery and peas in a flavorful gravy and topped with homemade biscuits.  Comfort food that will please even your pickiest eaters.

2.Red Beans and Rice $17: Sounds simple, but this delicious Creole dish is bursting with flavor.  Red beans, sausage, onions, garlic and seasonings simmered with red beans.  To serve, put a scoop of rice in your bowl and scoop the beans right on top.

 

3. Beef Taco Bake $19- Ground beef, corn tortillas, and refried beans are layered and then smothered in melted cheese.  This casserole is warm,  flavorful and filling.  Perfect for the winter nights!

4. Lemon Pesto Artichoke Chicken Pasta $19- Wow, now that’s a mouthful! But a mouthful of delicious!   Rotini pasta with Chicken and Artichokes in a creamy lemon-pesto sauce. Topped with Parmesan cheese. A fancy and  company-worthy meal.

5.  Breakfast Burritos $16:  Sausage, eggs, potatoes and cheese wrapped up in a flour tortilla.  Comes with 6 burritos.  Easy for a busy morning or, if you're lucky, a delicious brinner.  (Scrubs fans anyone?)

Last Round Before Maternity Leave! Orders Due Friday 9/30 OR when all 40 slots are full!

********ORDERS CLOSED!  THANK YOU EVERYONE**************



Hello all! This week's list will be the last one until December (Baby is coming so soon!  Yay!), so get your order in quickly before all the slots fill up!

1. Spinach and Cheese Manicotti $19-  Three cheeses and spinach stuffed pasta covered in marinara sauce and topped with mozzarella cheese. Kinda fancy and pretty to serve.

2. Chicken and Sweet Potato Burritos $17- Six generous portions of shredded chicken, roasted sweet potatoes, black beans and cheese wrapped up in a flour tortilla.  Easy to take for lunch and re-heat in the microwave!

3. Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole $18- All the classic flavors of chicken, ham and Swiss cheese paired with rice and creamy sauce.

4. Brown Sugar Meatloaf and Twice Baked Potatoes $19-  This freezer meal is hearty and comforting.  The meatloaf comes frozen and ready to bake in your oven. (Its much more tender not pre-baked... Learned this from experience!) and the potatoes can be stuck in the oven while the meatloaf is finishing up.

5. White Chicken Chili $16- Yay! It's fall!  If I was the only one eating at my house, this list would be full of soup.  Because there is something right and good an moral about soup in the fall.  This is a delicious Southwestern chicken and white bean soup.  It's not spicy.  If you like spicy, add a couple shakes of tobasco to your bowl.  Add your own sour cream, cheese and chips.

Pickup will be 10/7 from 2-5 (NOTICE THE DIFFERENT TIME!! I've got a commitment at 5:30 so I've got to buzz a bit early.)  Also, unless there is an emergency, please make sure you or someone you love is there to pick up your meals! It's getting hard to accommodate everyone's varied schedules and I gotta pay those grocery bills I racked up!

New List, Orders due 9/16/16 OR when limit has been reached!

Hi Everyone!  Here's what's available this time around:  

1. Cilantro-Lime Chicken Tacos $19- What makes this meal special is the cilantro-lime pesto.  It's savory and flavorful (and delicious) but not spicy at all (if you have any left over, try mixing it with sour cream for a crazy good dip.)  This meal includes enough seasoned shredded chicken, corn tortillas, cheese and cilantro-lime pesto for 12 tacos.  

 2. Tater-Tot Casserole $17- Seasoned ground beef with a creamy sauce topped with crunchy tater tots and cheese.  I feel like I should add a Napoleon Dynamite joke here but I can't think of one.  It's yummy. 

3. Tuscan Pasta $18-Bow tie pasta with tender chicken chunks and sun-dried tomatoes covered in a creamy sauce. Comes frozen in a pan for you to reheat in your oven (and throw the pan away after, thus eliminating any dish washing responsibilities.)

4. Ham and Cheese Sliders $18- These little ham and Swiss sandwiches are flavorful, delicious and easy to reheat.  They are filled with savory ham and metlty cheese and topped with a poppyseed butter sauce.  Kids and adults both love them! 

5. Cheap Korean Beef $16 -I thought about renaming this something more creative, but I decided not to because hey, why not call a spade a spade.  This meal is ground beef seasoned with ginger, garlic, brown sugar and soy sauce.  And it's good!

Orders will close on Friday the 16th or when I get 50 orders.  Pickup will be September 23rd from 3-6 pm.  You can place an order by commenting on this post, texting me or e-mailing me at ken1dra1@yahoo.com. Thanks All!

**ORDERS ARE CLOSED. THANKS EVERYONE!**

Every once in a while you just have to go back to what sounds good.  And what sounded good this week was a repeat of the first menu that I posted back in June.  So that's what we've got going now.  And this menu does include the famous French Dip sandwiches, so hopefully that sounds as good to you as it does to me.  A few of the prices have changes, and that is because the cost of groceries fluctuates and I can't always get ingredients for the same cost.  Sorry if that causes confusion!

Here's what is available this week:                                                                                                           1.

4. Sweet Pork Burritos $17: Tender sweet pork, re-fried beans, cilantro-lime rice and cheese wrapped up in a flour tortilla and individually frozen.  Comes with 6 big burritos. These can be taken to work and re-heated in a microwave.

5. Pasta Fagole $16:  This is a copycat recipe of the famous soup served at Olive Garden.  I know, it's summer, but this soup is really good and I'm craving it.  It has Italian sausage, tomato-based broth, beans and vegetables. Did I mention it's really, really good?

Orders are due Friday, August 19th by the end of the day.  Payment is due at pickup on Friday, August 26th between 3-6 pm or by arrangement.  You can order by contacting me through this blog, my email (ken1dra1@yahoo.com) texting me, or contacting me in your very favorite method. Thanks!

For those who are interested, this is how Freezer Meals works.  I will post a list every other week detailing what is available.  You contact me by phone, Facebook, e-mail or comment on this blog telling me what you want. There will be a time slot for you to come by and pick up your meals at my place and you can pay at that time. I will give you directions on how to prepare the food you've purchased.   I'm fine with giving out recipes if you ask for them. Message me or comment below with questions.  I'll be creating another post detailing what is available this week.
