Have you heard the E-mealz buzz? If not, then let me tell you what a wonderful 
With our busy sports schedule during the week it has always been complicated for me to figure out a way to feed the girls a healthy meal before practice. A fellow sports mom introduced me to the idea of having Supper for the lunch time meal. That way I know they have a filling dinner and are not eating a full meal at 830 PM and the Lt. has a warm plate of dinner when he arrives home from work. E-mealz makes this possible for me!
I struggle in the area of food planning and grocery shopping. I always have, but now with E-mealz I have help. E-mealz is an internet service that was created by two moms who understand that sometimes there is just enough hours in the day to plan healthy, balanced meals for our families. With E-mealz you get weekly menu plans for 7 days, complete with recipes and a shopping list tailored to your supermarket choice and based on the number of people in your family. There is a plan for family's of 4-6 or an option for a 5 day two person plan. E-mealz also caters to those with special dietary concerns, such as gluten free, vegetarian, portion control, low fat or low-carb. There are several stores to choose from including: Kroger, Publix, WalMart, Aldi, Ralphs, or the Any Store option. They have it all covered! I choose the regular family plan for WalMart.
Each week,Thursdays for WalMart plan, a new menu is posted. You open it up, download and print out. The menu is laid out in a grid form making it easy to read and to plan which day you will eat what meal. The ingredients and the recipe are listed right next to the meal plan making it easy to read and follow.
On the second page is your customized shopping list with prices planned around the sales at the grocery store. It lists ALL the items needed for the weeks meal including staple items like salt, flour, and oil. My weekly menus for dinner ran on average about $85.00 per week. I did find that not every item on the shopping list was the listed price, but I was told by other Crewmates that it was because food prices range from region to region. But you know what? I am OK with that for the amount I am saving!
I know your probably thinking that the meals could not be that delicious for that price, right? WRONG! We had some really yummy meals and even my picky eater enjoyed them with some clever disguise. Over the last 8 weeks we have enjoyed meals like:
Chicken Dijonnaise with wild rice, and homemade bread
* a family favorite!
Incredible Baked Ziti
Calico Corn & Turkey Bacon Pie
Mango Tilapia with white rice and green beans
Pasta e Fagioli
