What’s for dinner?

Its 4:00. You just picked the kids up–you are all tired and hungry.

What’s for dinner???

Ugh… You haven’t had time to go to the store.

And the kids have their activities, you are going to spend the rest of the evening driving the kids around.

What if you had a home-cooked meal waiting for you when you got home?

Hi, I’m Julie.

I’m a Pharmacist, Chef, and Mother of twins.  

During the week, our lives are so hectic…  I feel like a shuttle driver—going from one activity to the next.  We are so busy.  

I don’t have time to cook during the week.  

But we have a home-cooked meal every night.

My secret?  

Meal prep.  

I cook once a week and put 3-7 meals in the freezer.  

During the week, I pull out a meal.

Sometimes it’s a one-dish meal like my potato leek kale soup

Sometimes I freeze the meat and sauce like for my raspberry chipotle chicken tacos

tomato basil spaghetti squash

Sometimes it is just the sauce, like for my tomato basil spaghetti squash

Sometimes I have almost a full meal in a foil pan, like for my chicken marsala with mashed potatoes

No matter what meal, it is EASY, HEALTHY, & TASTY.

But Meals Made Easy is not about my recipes.

It’s about yours…

Every family is different.

Different food restrictions and preferences.

How many cookbooks have you bought or recipes have you pinned that just didn’t work for your family?

Have you bought meal plans or meal kits but maybe you could get one meal that everyone would/could eat?

I get it… I have been there…

Julie in the hosptial after failed fertility treatment

Back in 2014 when I started fertility treatments, I was told that I had PCOS—which is related to diabetes, meaning I ate too much sugar.

And I had to change my diet. (BTW, this was before culinary school)

I was given a list of foods I could eat and sent on my way.

And I didn’t like anything on the list…

So I bought cookbooks and pinned recipes.  I bought meal kits.

But I just didn’t like what I had to eat.

I felt sad and unsatisfied…

And I was counting down the days until I could go back to my regular diet.

I can’t even imagine if I had kids at this point when I was trying to change my diet.

But here’s the thing…

I was re-inventing the wheel.

I was caught in this vicious cycle of find a recipe, make it, don’t like it, start over and find a new recipe.

What I should have done then (and what I do now) is to tweak the meals I (and my family) already like.

Bottom line–it has to be EASY…

If it’s not easy, you won’t make it…

If it doesn’t taste good, your family won’t eat it…

If it’s not healthy, it is hurting your family…

So how do you tweak your OWN meals to make them easier, healthier, and tastier?

When I first started meal prep (a long time ago), I would make a meal and put it in the freezer.  And it was OK.  But sometimes it tasted like leftovers.

It wasn’t until culinary school and working at the catering company that I realized what I was missing.

You see, restaurants actually prep their food ahead of time–but it doesn’t taste like leftovers, it tastes like the food was cooked to order.

The secret was how you prep the food and how you reheat it.  What do you do ahead of time and what needs to be done right before serving.

I am going to share with you the:

  • Secrets of how to analyze a recipe and decide what to make ahead of time, what to do at serving
  • Secrets of how to make more of a meal without spending all day in the kitchen
  • Secrets of how to tweak meals to make them healthier without sacrificing flavor

How Meals Made Easy works…

First, we make it EASY.

We will take the meals that your family loves and prep them.

You will cook once a week and put 3 to 7 meals in the freezer—without spending much time in the kitchen by using some simple hacks to minimize the active cooking time

After 1 month, your freezer is full of quick & easy meals your family loves.

After it is EASY, and you have a variety of GO-TO meals, we will start to tweak your meals to make them HEALTHIER and TASTIER.

Easy.  Healthy.  Tasty.  Repeat.

Imagine during the week, grabbing one of your meals from the freezer and having dinner on the table in a matter of minutes…

You can enjoy your family time instead of being stressed trying to make or pick up dinner.

You are feeling better and have more energy.

You are saving money.

You are Savoring life…
