On Friday one of my closest friends and nieghbours told me she was diagnosed with breast cancer. On Saturday I sent my son to the shops with a list, and my dil and I spent all afternoon making freezer meals. My friend is allergic to onions, so everything had to be from scratch, no pre made sauces or spice mixes! We replaced onion powder with ground up dry chives, and replaced onion with leek. Taco seasoning and Italian seasoning had to be from scratch! We ended up making only six, but I'll do another six on the weekend. She and her partner were so grateful when my son dropped then off. She was amazed when we explained how we cut onion out of everything.

Freezer meals for the WIN!!!! You're such a good friend/neighbour! How lucky she is to have you.

@FreezerMeals101 she's been my friend a lot longer than she's been my neighbour, half the reason we chose this house was because she lived so close. We used a couple of your recipes, the spaghetti sauce and the chicken fried rice.

"sometimes that can make your blood pressure rise a bit too" you're so right, it's so hard to figure out how to properly budget with meals! Thank you so much for this video, this was so helpful!

Thanks for the baby story. It brought out tears. I use couponing apps, store loyalty program, and shop BOGOs. I have taught my husband about couponing. Now he asks if certain things are on sale or if there are coupons for them. 😂 With Freezer Meal 101 club I don’t have to worry if I buy a ridiculous amount of a certain protein at a great savings because I know I can find a variety of recipes in which to make use of the purchase. The available VARIETY of recipes makes it all Work together and saves me a lot of work!

Christie here - I absolutely spend more money when my kids come. I'm a softy when it comes to them asking for cookies or something. I never think to buy it when I'm on my own.

Oh to have grocery stores price match and to have a 15% off day - I think I need to relocate from Australia to Canada!!!

And here we sit, jealous of the American couponing system. If they work it right then can get a cart full of groceries for $5. But that's probably only what we see in TV. It's called Extreme Couponing for a reason. 😂 Wishing excellent sales in your near future and I hope you can take full advantage of them. 🤞

I never even knew you could buy spices in bulk and refill your spice jars. These are the type of hints I love. My only question is won't the remaining spice go bad after a short while? I also never knew about stores labeling a product one price but each package can be a different weight. Keep these videos coming!

@FreezerMeals101 2 ай бұрын

Spices don't last very long unfortunately. We manage to go through them fairly quickly by cooking this way, but here's another tip... you can freeze your spices! They won't last indefinitely, but they'll last way longer in the freezer than they would on your shelf. The other nice thing about buying in bulk is that you might only need a few teaspoonfuls of a particular spice for a recipe. You can buy literally a few teaspoonfuls! Then there is nothing to waste. Some places like Bulk Barn here in Canada will allow you to use containers from home to buy your spices - or whatever bulk item they're selling. I think they even have a discount on Sundays for bringing your own container. You weigh the empty container on the way in, and on the way out, they weigh it again and only charge you the difference. Pretty cool, eh?
