What’s for dinner?

August 27, 2008 · Comments are Closed

Oh I need to get organized and have a plan! In the past I have been really happy and satisfied with SavingDinner.com. There is no thinking involved! For a fee you are emailed a set of recipes each week along with a shopping list. I especially like the freezer meals from Saving Dinner. The ones for the grill are really great. I also like that I can choose a menu by dietary need —heart healthy, low carb . You can even choose by which hemisphere you live in. She even has holiday menus! One of the biggest benefits is that her recipes use a wide variety of meats, vegetables and fruits so it keeps us eating a really varied diet and keeps my kids trying new things. But most important, all week long I can always answer that big question, “What’s for dinner?” For some reason I have fallen off the wagon—so I am hopping back on.

If you would like to give saving dinner meals a try then leave a comment by Friday at midnight and one lucky reader will receive a free 5 for the Freezer meal plan from Saving Dinner!

I am also anxious to try Stacy’s recommendation for You’ve Got Supper! This service is free.

I have my recipes and shopping list printed and I am off to the store! Have a great day!

I’d love to try that out – I have the book and I like it a lot but haven’t tried the freezer meals.

I have never heard of this! It sounds like something I could use! I hate planning out “what’s for dinner” every week. I draw a blank and stare at the pantry for awhile! Thanks for the idea!

I would love to try it and see if it would help me get organized about meals! Hard to do with 7 year old twins and all that they do! Thanks for all your ideas and hints

What a great giveaway. I am always looking for good recipes for the freezer.
#5 Michelle August 27, 2008, 1:59 pm

My freezer is almost empty and this would be so great..
#6 Cassandra August 27, 2008, 2:00 pm

This is so great! I get tired of making all the same stuff, but just don’t have the time or energy to seek out new recipes every week. Thanks for the tip!

I’ve very interested in Freezer meals. I made four this past week and we are in the process of testing and reviewing the meals. Thanks!

I also love Menus4Moms. It has a fee part and a free part. The fee gets you the nutrition info and the weightwatchers points. The free section gives you the basic menu and the grocery list. It’s a real time saver for me!

Love saving dinner. I have her low carb book. I would love some freezer meal ideas to keep handy!

ooo, pick me, pick me! i’ve been known to go to one of those ‘make-your-meals-ahead-and store-them-in-the-freezer’ stores but they were so expensive & the food really wasn’t all that great. i just really need help adding new things to my list of meals and to have someone SEND me my meal plan & shopping list…ah what else could my lazy self want?
#11 Beth H August 27, 2008, 4:36 pm

Oh this looks good. I’m always looking for things to make meal time a little easier. I’ll check out the free site too!
#12 Kate August 27, 2008, 5:21 pm

I’d love to try this!
#13 Melody August 27, 2008, 5:48 pm

I’ve heard good things about this too! I’d love to try it.
#14 Gabriel August 27, 2008, 5:56 pm

I need help! I hate trying to figure out dinner every night, plus I love making dinner once and having it feed us 2 or 3 times. This sounds like a godsend!
#15 Karen August 27, 2008, 6:58 pm

I’ve tried Let’s Dish, but I would love to try Saving Dinner!
#16 Brianne August 27, 2008, 7:12 pm

I actually just started a freezer meals group with a few friends and I would love to have some more recipes. Thanks for the chance!
#17 Nikki August 27, 2008, 7:16 pm

Freezer meals are wonderful to give people when they have a newborn baby. I would love some more ideas to use!
#18 Kris August 27, 2008, 7:55 pm

With a daughter’s wedding coming up in three weeks and two preschoolers shadowing me everywhere, this sounds like a godsend.

It would be great to win – any help in this area is always good!
#20 Kimmy August 27, 2008, 8:46 pm

Sounds great especially with a new 5 day old baby

I am one of the founders of YGS – You’ve Got Supper. We appreciate the mention, and I wanted to provide a little context for the readers. We started like all other menu planning sites on the web, as a fee-based subscription model. We decided this was not in our members’ best interest, so we converted to a free model four months ago.

We have grown 1,900%. We would like to keep it up, so give us a try. I think you will like our service and we continue to work hard to be the best menu planning website (free or fee-based). Thanks.

#24 Juliette August 27, 2008, 10:01 pm

Wonderful idea! It’s just what I need as I feel the panic of the school year upon me.
#25 Anne Haun August 27, 2008, 10:46 pm

What a neat idea – sure would be fun to try.
#26 Becky August 27, 2008, 11:01 pm

I had never heard of the site, would be neat to try it out.
#27 Jenna August 27, 2008, 11:56 pm

I’ve never heard of this before- sounds cool though! With my second child due shortly it would be good to have some freezer meals made up for the rest of the clan!
Thanks,
Jenna
