How Our Fresh, Pre-Made, Meals Can Save You BIG $$$

How Our Fresh, Pre-Made, Meals Can Save You BIG $$$

menu

Each week we post our menus.  This is a great service for those of you who are still getting into the swing of the school year and could use just a little help and extra time.  You may think this awesome service will break the bank… but actually, not only will it save you time, it will also help you be healthier AND save you money! Pull out your calculators to check my math…

First – How much is an hour of your time worth? Let’s say $30/hr. For you to make dinner you need:

10 Minutes Menu Planning

10 Minutes Market List

30 Minutes Round Trip to/ from Market

20 Minutes Shopping at Market

 10 Minutes Put Groceries Away

 40 Minutes Cook

 15 Minutes Clean-Up

That’s 135 Minute or 2.25 Hours or $67.50 a day or $472.50 in a week. That is only your time!

Now let’s include the cost of groceries… the average family of 4 spends $146 a week on groceries just for dinner.  Then add the gas expense and miles on your car.

All those numbers work out to $88.36 for 1 dinner for 4 people… or $22.09 each!

Our meals average $12 per portion. All the ingredients I use are fresh, local, and organic grade. Each meal is complete with protein, vegetables, and starch and are approximately 400 calories. So ask yourself the question….”why isn’t your dinner being delivered to your door?”

Fit Berries? Trying to eat right but not deprive yourself of a great treat? Berries are the answer!

Fit Berries? Trying to eat right but not deprive yourself of a great treat? Berries are the answer!

Berries are ideal for a weight-loss diet since they’re naturally sweet and delicious without lots of calories or fat.

Confusing and misleading weight-loss advice seems to be everywhere. Of course, there is no magic for quick weight loss and there’s no substitute for hard work, but there are foods that can support healthy weight loss, and berries top the list.

Naturally sweet, berries are packed with pectin, a type of soluble fiber that promotes a feeling of fullness. It also has the potential to help lower cholesterol and improve insulin resistance.

Strawberries are America’s most popular berry. One cup has only 53 calories. They are a convenient snack, can add zip to hot or cold cereal, jazz up a salad or add substance to yogurt parfaits. Ripe strawberries are perfect for freezing for smoothies and fruit drinks.

Other berries including blueberries, blackberries and raspberries are also a fresh and healthy addition to a weight-loss diet plan. One cup of each berry has less than 84 calories, and just like strawberries, each is packed with nutrition and a versatility in culinary uses.

Each individual, tasty berry has its own unique nutritional values and functional benefits. Supercharge your diet and maximize berry health benefits by enjoying the entire berry patch.

Hey Honey

chocolatemousse May 19, 2016 Leave a Comment

Hey Honey

With Hay Fever season in full swing, many people are desperate to find relief from their allergy symptoms. Natural therapy is becoming a very popular choice of treatment. So why eat a “spoonful of sugar to help your medicine go down”, when just a daily spoonful of honey, could be your relief from those pesky spring allergies?

Eating local Honey works similar to a vaccination, by introducing small amounts of a virus or germ to the body and triggering an immune system response. This causes the production of antibodies designated to fight off the invaders. A daily dose of honey is like gradually vaccinating the body against allergens, a process called immunotherapy. Honey contains a variety of pollen spores that give allergy sufferers trouble when flowers and grasses are in bloom. Introducing these spores into the body in small amounts makes the body accustomed to their presence and decreases allergy symptoms.
Local honey is the best because it is produced by bees within a few miles of where you live. The proximity increases the chances that the varieties of flowering plants and grasses giving the allergy sufferer trouble are the same kinds the bees are including in their honey. After all, it wouldn’t help much if you ate honey with spores from a type of grass that grows in Michigan if you suffer from allergies in New York.
So, not only is Honey a treat for your taste buds, but it is good for you… and not just for your allergies. Honey offers incredible antiseptic, antioxidant and cleansing properties for your body, health, and skin care. From eye conjunctivitis to athletes foot, it’s powerful healing attributes have been used for thousands of years.
Honey, perhaps the tastiest natural medicine. Eating for health has never been sweeter.
