Episode summary
My journey with freezer cooking started one night, early in our newlywed days as we went out on our favorite date: prowling around Barnes and Noble. My favorite section to hunt through are the bargain and discount books right up at the front. I always find awesome cookbooks and other practical books for awesome prices! And this night I came across I book called Once a Month Cooking: Family Favorites and my kitchen changed forever.
Links & Resources Mentioned in This Episode:
- Meet our newest twin boys: Remington & Ryder
- Once a Month Cooking: Family Favorites
- Once a Month Meals (AMAZING website full of freezer cooking resources)
- Pyrex Baking Dishes I use for casseroles/lasagnas

Resource of the Week:
Once a Month Meals Website
Usually in the podcast I take a minute to highlight a book of the week. But instead, today I want to highlight what has recently been the most helpful thing to me: Once a Month Meals.
They are a website devoted to freezer cooking meal plans and recipes! They have a TON of amazing free meal plans each week including a whole food meal plan, paleo, gluten-free, kid friendly meals and more!
They do have a subscription option which gives you access to additional features (which I think are worth it in my opinion) but they also give SO much away for FREE and it’s awesome! This is where I recommend you start for amazing freezer cooking meals and menus.
