Almost One Week In

Alright, well I've only made two meals out of my E-Mealz plan but that is because we spent the weekend at my parents. So right now I'm batting 50/50.

The first meal was a BBQ Chicken packet. BBQ chicken with corn on the cobb and broccoli. Yum! Jose even said "I like this, this is good. Just like the good old days". Those were the days prior to our less than a closet size kitchen in Myers Hall.

The second meal, some Meatballs and sauce over egg noodles. I could do with out this one. Definitely not the worst meal I've had, but probably one that if it came on the rotation I would substitute one of my own for. The nice thing is that half of the meatballs I made were frozen to be used for another meal this week. Cooking ahead is great!

On for tonight is BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwiches and Greek Salad. The great thing is it is all done in the crockpot (minus the salad of course).

The other meals took less than an hour for me to cook. It may seem a while, but I also have Eleana to wrangle and keep entertained as dad was out while I was cooking.

So my next list will come out tomorrow. I won't do my shopping until this weekend though because we have plans on a few nights this week. I thought that only having 5 meals planned would not be enough. First week down and I've still go meals left to cook. I'm not sure if that is a good thing or not.

If you want to check out the meal options they have the website is www.e-mealz.com . Someone asked if you can customize for various things. You have to pick one meal plan and you can change it with in your 3 month subscription once. They have them listed as 2 Person meals (which I did and we've had leftovers both times), or Family meals (4-6 pl). They break them down by store or there is an any store. They also have a vegetarian option, a low fat option, gluten free, and there is one other one I think. You can view a sample plan though to see what you might be getting.

If you choose to subscribe, please let them know you heard it from me!

Ok seriously- you started a meal plan subscription at the same time that I did! I'm doing RelishRelish.com and love it so far. You can customize and even do vegetarian. I got a voucher to try it though. I'm also looking at thefresh20.com when my Relish voucher ends...Relish is $7 a month and Fresh20 is $5...Fresh lets you pick gluten free, traditional or vegetarian. Relish lets you mix it up- traditional or vegetarian.
