We bought a half-cow share a couple of years ago and got a deep freeze to store it. We’ve since purchased another half-cow and use the deep freeze to store items that I like to stock or buy in bulk when they are on sale. This has helped me to get into the habit of checking my freezer when I plan meals for the week.
Butcher Box Meats Butcher Box Meats Butcher Box offers 100% grass-fed beef and grass-finished, organic free-range chicken, humanely-raised pork and wild-caught seafood. About one box per month is my average. The email reminds me a week prior to my delivery so that I can go online and adjust the cuts I want and browse the member deals and specials.
I buy in bulk and stock up on the best deals. For example, organic chicken breasts were on sale this month. I purchased 15 pounds of them to store in my freezer. I watch for frozen meatballs, breaded chicken pieces and other items to be on sale. These are great for easy and quick dinners.
Organic riced Cauliflower I know that cauliflower was once used in everything from mashed potato to pizza crust. It’s possible that the popularity of cauliflower has waned, but riced cauliflower is still useful. This low-carb side dish can be prepared in under 10 minutes on the stovetop. You can add it to smoothies for added nutrition and a frosty texture without adding an odd taste. Add it to a morning veggie hash to thicken the base and then add a fried yolk on top. Finley loves it when you add it to her food. It’s also cheaper than buying fresh cauliflower.
Organic Chicken Breakfast Sausages– I buy these at Costco, and my whole family enjoys the taste. I like the extra protein in the mornings. This is especially true if my kids are eating sweeter breakfasts or carb-rich foods, such as sweetened pancakes or oatmeal. This can help to balance their blood sugar levels and provide them with some much-needed protein first thing in the morning.
