  Mexican food seems to be my forte.  I do love it.  These ground beef enchiladas, were better than any I’ve ever made before.  They were soooo good!  Unfortunately for me, I had a mom’s night out, at a Mexican Restaurant the night we had them, so I skipped getting them as a meal.  I did have to sneak a taste before I left though.  After eating out at the

Last year, we procrastinated on getting our costumes together early enough to share about them.  I was looking through my phone the other day and saw our old pictures and just knew I should let you see!  My now 18 month old was only 6 months old at the time and we had the hardest time getting her to hold still…but we were able to get a few pictures…although some are

I have not had Stuffed Peppers in a long time!  I kept putting off making these, because it wasn’t one of those recipes I could just dump everything in the slow cooker for.  I had to brown the meat first and I also had to cook the rice.  Big deal, right?  Well, for some reason, that makes me procrastinate.  I’ve been planning to make a weekly meal plan again, but

A couple of weeks ago, I shared with you about how you can build a blog to make extra income.  When I first got into monetizing my blog, I was doing it for the purpose of trying to make enough money to pay some of our monthly bills and to have some extra spending money.  A friend of mine was making enough money each month to pay her grocery bill and

    Getting out in the garden is a proven way to live a healthier and more fulfilled life, it keeps you active and in touch with nature, and also allows you to grow your own food. The garden can be a sanctuary, a place to get away to and relax in. It’s also a great way to get the kids interested in nature. If you’re looking to upgrade your

Round Steak & Veggies in the Slow Cooker (Low Carb Version, too!)

We have been looking for some different things to cook in the slow cooker.  I love any meats that are cooked in a tomato sauce of some kind.  Whether it has diced tomatoes, tomato soup or just plain tomato sauce, it is usually a good choice!  The sauce cooks into the meat nicely!   Originally, I was going to call this a casserole, but when I saw it, it really

I’ve always been a sucker for dips.  There’s something about eating dip …. chips, veggies, fruit, or almost anything that you can dip into different kinds of dips, makes it taste better.  When my 18 year old was just a toddler, I’d give him cooked green beans and get him some ketchup to dip them into so that he would eat something green.  He loved it.  He thought it was fun to dip

Testimonials

  • Amorette DavisUser of the Free Freezer to Slow Cooker One Week Menu

    Thank you so much! As a special needs mommy these recipes have helped us so much.   I often am very busy with being a nurse for our child that I don't have time for making sure we get meals.  This allows me to do all my prep on the weekends, while my husband is home to help, and to cook during the week.  So grateful!

  • Linda SearsOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Menus

    Sarah’s Freezer to Slow Cooker ebooks have been a fantastic addition to my meal plans.  They make meal planning easy and my family happy. I love the way each recipe is laid out, with a shopping list and ingredient prep list, along with cooking instructions. Sarah’s done all the hard work for me!  The recipes have used have all been delicious and easily adaptable to my family’s taste and the number of people I’m serving.

  • FranOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebooks
     I purchased all of your freezer to slow cooker ebooks a month or so ago and I'm in love with this way of cooking.  I now have taken all 10 weeks of recipes and written them of my menu planner and then I repeated the 10 weeks and will continue to do so throughout the year.  My family of 5 adults and 1 child enjoy the meals that you have planned and I have cooked and I'm excited that the next time when that meal comes due up in the rotation I won't have to purchase anything but just pull it from the freezer.  Thank you so much

    This makes my life so much easier. I'm a busy work at home/stay at home mom, wife, business woman and I feel like dinner is always the thing I just never get time to do. We have done like 15 of the crockpot recipes from Sarah and they are all very yummy. They get a thumbs up from my husband and kids every time. And there is always enough for my husband to take the left overs at least 2x per recipe. I have a family of 5, 2 adults, 21, 13, 16. So it makes plenty. Thank you Sarah.

  • Dawn S.Buyer of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebook Series
    I am a 59-year-old wife and mother of two grown children.  I love your idea of fixing a lot of meals ahead of time and then pulling one out, put it in the crockpot, and you have dinner when you get home.  I hate feeling rushed when I cook so Monday - Friday I use those crockpot meals and make enough that we have lunch the next day.  I take Sunday afternoon, fix up what I need for the week (I don't have a lot of freezer space so I do a week's worth at a time) and I'm done with it!  Saturdays I like to try new recipes from some of my cookbooks which I am finding I can freeze as well!  So you have shown me a whole new way to organize my time and still put a healthy meal on the table.  Thanks so much and I look forward to future blogs.
