So….today is the day!  The final day that I am in the Shaklee 180™ blogger program.  It has been 6 months!  I remember thinking that 6 months would go by so slowly, but really, it zoomed by and I can’t believe that we’re done with the journey.  Of course, I’ll never be done.  Losing weight and keeping it off will be a life long journey for me! The past month and

You’ve probably never had cooking mistakes and mess ups in the kitchen, have you?  I mean, everything I have ever touched in the kitchen always turns out perfectly.  (Yeah Right!)  Actually, I commonly burn things because I have the heat too high (or I forget about them) and I’m really good at leaving ingredients out of recipes because I don’t have it on hand.  A lot of times recipes are

Marinara Chicken and vegetables is wonderful.  Let me just tell you, I am usually not a fan of zucchini.  But when it’s added to tomato based dishes, I really enjoy it.  This meal was chock full of yummy vegetables and smelled wonderful while it was cooking.  For the chicken, I put in the whole pieces of chicken and then cut it up after it was all the way cooked.  Our whole

    I’ve been on Shaklee 180™ for 5 months now!  Crazy, right?  The time is flying by.  There’s lots of small differences I’m noticing.  I love that1   I can size up food and know if it’ll have too many calories in it.   I love how my shirts fit me so much better now! My pants aren’t nearly as tight. I’ve begun craving exercise.  It’s funny though.  I

I’ve been wanting to make more meals that are rich in vegetables.  Not only are they better for us, but they’re easier for me to stay on  my eating plan when I have meals like this.  The only problem is that I have 2 children who don’t like this wide of an assortment of vegetables.  They survive though, and the rest of us are happy.  We love to add some

 My husband has never claimed to be a big pork eater.  I’m not sure why.  He loves the more processed versions of pork (like  sausage, bacon & shaved ham), but when it comes to pork roasts, pulled pork and pork chops, he’d rather eat beef.  In an effort to broaden our horizons a bit, I decide it was time to try a new pork roast recipe.  For starters, I discovered,

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.
