Hi. I’m Kendra Johnson. Eating together is important to my family, but is sometimes difficult because of the busy lives we lead . Freezer meals have allowed us to enjoy eating delicious home-cooked food without the hours of daily preparation and without the mountains of dishes that come with it.
I would like to invite you to enjoy these same benefits by purchasing ready made freezer meals from me!
Every other week, I will be taking orders for Freezer Meals. Prices will range from $15-20 and will feed a family of six. There will be a blog post listing what is available, when the orders are due, and when the meals will be ready for pickup.

Feel free to e-mail me with any questions at johnson.kendra11@gmail.com

New Freezer Meal's List, Orders Due 2/24/16

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. Cheap Korean Beef and Rice $16- Ground Beef seasoned with soy sauce, garlic, ginger and brown sugar.  The ground beef makes it "cheap" but there's no skimping on flavor here!  To serve, place a scoop of rice on a plate and top with the meat mixture and finish with green onions.
 
3. Beef Fajita kit $19- Marinated steak strips with peppers and onions ready to thaw and fry up fresh in a pan in about 15 minutes or throw in a crock pot in the morning to cook slowly all day.  Comes with tortillas for serving.

4. Lemon 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.

New list up! Orders Due Thursday the 9th of February

Here's what's for dinner next week:

1. Baked Manicotti $18- Spinach and cheese manicotti layered with italian sausage, bechamel and marinara sauce and cheese.  Bechamel is fancy for cream sauce.  I didn't know that so I'd like to thank the  Food Network for enlightening me.

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 Broccoli Rice Hot Dish $16- Hey, did you guys know that "Hot dish" is another word for casserole?  I didn't.  But I like it so I'm totally using it.  Chicken, rice, broccoli and cheese combine for you to bake up yummily hot in a dish I provide for you to throw away after. Also, I like the word "yummily."  I apologize to any of my former English professors who may come across this. But it's funner to use creative words.


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. Blue-Ribbon Chili $18- It's meaty.  It's tomatoey.  It's beaney.   And we've already discussed my affinity for non-traditional use of the English language.  This mild chili is a for-sure prize winner, and freezing it makes it even better because the flavors blend most deliciously. 



All meals serve 6.  Pickup will be Thurdsay the 16th from 5-8 pm.  Payment is due at pickup. To order, please email me at ken1dra1@yahoo.com. Peace out!

New List! Orders Due 1/26.

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.  Chicken & Bacon Melts $18-  Shredded chicken, bacon and cheese on a garlic-ciabatta bun.  Individually wrapped sandwiches to heat up toasty-warm in your oven.  This is a great meal when you've got 20 minutes to get dinner on the table.

5. Pork & Sweet Potato Curry and rice $17-  pork, carrots, onions and sweet potatoes in a curry sauce.  No heat in this sauce, it's nice and mild.  To serve, put rice in a bowl and top with curry. 

Orders will close on Thursday, January 26 and pickup will be Thursday, February 2 from 5-8.  You can place an order by commenting on this post, texting me or e-mailing me at ken1dra1@yahoo.com. Thanks All!

This is a meal that my entire family enjoys.  Comfort food at it's finest.
