Meal Squeeze Review

meal squeezeDoes $5 a month for someone to plan your suppers for you with an included grocery list (broken down in categories), meal prep list, plus they are healthy and offer a huge variety throughout the week sound too good to be true? How about the fact that each meal is ready in about 30-40 minuets with 1 meal being ready in about 20 minuets? Yeah… I thought so too! However, Meal Squeeze does exactly that, and the bonus is my family really ENJOYS the food! How often can you say that your 10 year old took a second helping of brussel sprouts? Or your 7 year old who almost flat out refused to even try the brussel sprouts begrudging agreed that they were actually good! When I cook these meals, I actually feel like an amazing cook. I’m happier for feeding my family things that can help them grow in their healthy eating habits too! Here is a picture of some fish I baked with parmesan asparagus.

You see, I’m working on myself. I’ve learned that if I want to be the best mom and wife that I can be that includes taking care of my own body. It’s teaching myself how to love me and in return I can teach my children how to grow and love themselves. My kids are growing up. I have a preteen now and I remember those school days all too well. However, when I was putting a lot of focus in what I needed to do to get healthy and lose the extra weight, I was putting less time and effort into my family’s meals. Now, Meal Squeeze does all the work for me, and I can be confident in what I’m feeding my family. Most of the meat and vegetables I can also enjoy with them which is also a time saver and added bonus!

So if you feel like you hit a slump with meal planning or just find it to be a burden you no longer wish to carry, give Meal Squeeze a try! Check out my affiliate link here: https://www.mealsqueeze.com?afmc=2c They also have a 7 day FREE TRIAL with no payment information required!! I will warn you though, once you prepare 7 of her meals, you’ll be convinced that the $5 a month is more than worth it!

Take Care!

Italian Inspired Pork Chops

It’s important for me to have easy recipes that work with my plan to lose weight and gain a more comfortable and healthy lifestyle. I don’t want something that is going to take me hours to prepare. Me and meal planning don’t always get along and if I want this to last a lifetime I know I need to find recipes me and my family love that are easy to prepare. I also get that food that is truly good for you usually costs more, but being a family of 6 if I can find something we all love that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg than I know I’ve found a winner and will prepare it again and again! I think I found all of that and a delicious taste with this Italian Inspired Pork Chops. I made it for myself today and packaged it up, but I can easily double the recipe and make it for my whole family next time now that I know how amazing it tastes!

Italian Inspired Pork Chops

makes 4 servings

  • 4- 5 oz boneless pork chops less than an inch thickmeal
  • 3 cups sliced mushrooms
  • 1 1/3 TBS olive oil
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 1 green pepper (about 1.5 cups) thickly chopped
  • .5 red pepper (about .5 cups) thickly chopped
  • 1 14.5 oz. can of Italian diced tomatoes

 

 

First I added 1/3 TBS of the olive oil to a skillet and added the mushrooms. I cooked on medium heat until mushrooms were tender, about 5 min. and then I set them aside in a bowl.

Next, I added the last 1 TBS of olive oil to my pan and cooked the pork chops on medium-high heat for 4 mins. on each side to brown them slightly. I dusted one side with a little bit of pepper. I took the pork chops out and set aside on a plate.

I drained most of the fluid in my pan and then added the peppers and cooked for 5 min. on medium heat. I then removed them from the pan and placed them in the bowl with the mushrooms.

Finally, I added the can of Italian diced tomatoes and placed the pork chops on top. I covered and simmered them on medium heat for 25 min. I added the mushrooms and peppers to the top of the pan for the last 5 minuets of cooking. food 2food

That’s it! You’re done and you have a delicious, colorful, and flavorful meal ready for you and your family to eat! Or you can pack in 4 small pyrex containers and heat them up in the microwave when you’re ready to eat them.

So tell me what you think of this recipe? Do you think your family would enjoy this? I was really surprised at how easy and fast I was able to make it and nothing stuck to the bottom of my pan and that’s always a plus when I’m cooking!

Take Care!
