Healthy Macaroni with Hidden Veggie
Nearly every meal I prepare consists of foods I have cooked or baked in bulk and frozen. I thaw items in a plastic shoe box to prevent condensation dripping onto my shelves (I’ve learned from experience). Then I shop my freezer from my freezer inventory, to see what goodies I can thaw and serve to my family and others. I write these items down on a seven-day menu plan and post it on my refrigerator as a reminder to thaw my food 24 hours ahead of time. Typically right after the dishes are done, I check my menu plan and put new items into my thawing box and slash them off my freezer inventory.
We rotate the same breakfast items each week:
- Freezer waffles with fresh/frozen seasonal fruit or homemade syrup
- Homemade Crock pot yogurt with homemade granola
- Oatmeal with cranberries, walnuts and raw sugar
- Cheerios with bananas and milk
- Scrambled eggs and quick bread like banana or zucchini
We rotate wraps, sandwiches and leftovers for lunch.

I was blessed with a complimentary ticket to Ewomen conference this past weekend. I was in awe with Pam Tebow ‘s faith and scripture memory through song. I had an awesome time laughing out loud with girlfriends. It was such a blessing to be off the mommy clock for a while. Now it’s back to the normal hours of holding children, freezer cooking, cleaning and more. However, I’m such a better mom, refreshed and grateful for my blessings from God. I hope your week is blessed and full of grateful moments of praise and worship.
Were any of you at the ewomen conference in Greenville or have you heard Pam Tebow speak?
