Weāll cover simple strategies, share a personal story, give you some starter recipes, and even throw in a real-life testimonial to get you inspired. Letās make dinner time as easy as grabbing a meal from your freezer!
Recipes to Get You Started!
**Hearty Beef Stew:**This stew is a freezer classic. Itās packed with tender beef, veggies, and rich broth. Freeze in portions, and youāll have a comforting dinner ready to go on those chilly fall nights.
**Chicken Enchiladas:**These cheesy, saucy enchiladas are perfect for freezing. Assemble them in a foil tray, freeze, and bake when youāre ready for a fiesta in your kitchen.
**Slow Cooker Pulled Pork:**Dump all the ingredients into a freezer bag, and on a busy day, throw it into the slow cooker. A few hours later, youāve got tender, juicy pulled pork perfect for sandwiches or tacos.

Hey, hey beautiful mama!
Can you believe it? The end of summer is sneaking up on us, and I donāt know about you, but Iām feeling a mix of āfinally, some structure!ā and āwhere did the time go?ā As we bid farewell to lazy beach days, endless popsicles, and the sweet, sweet chaos that is summer, itās time to start thinking about getting back into the swing of things with school, routines, and (dare I say it?) meal planning. But donāt worry, weāre wrapping up summer with a bang and making sure youāre all set for the Labour Day long weekend.
End music
Letās dive into a week of family-friendly meals that celebrate the best of summer, with a little bonus at the end to help you make the most of the upcoming long weekend!
Monday- BBQ Chicken Skewers with Grilled Veggies
Tuesday- Taco TuesdayāFish Tacos with Mango Salsa
Wednesday- Summer Pasta Salad with Grilled Sausage
Thursday- Instant Pot Pulled Pork Sandwiches with Coleslaw
Friday- Pizza NightāHomemade Pizzas on the Grill
Saturday- Grilled Shrimp and Veggie Foil Packets
Sunday- Family-Style BBQ Feast
Letās wrap up the week with a bangāa full-on BBQ feast! Think burgers, hot dogs, corn on the cob, and a big salad to share
Bonus Labour Day Long Weekend Menu
**Bonus Labour Day Menu:**
And because I couldnāt let you face Labour Day without a little extra help, hereās a bonus menu to keep the celebrations going strong and help you plan ahead for next week:
- **Sticky Honey-Garlic Drumsticks:** Juicy chicken drumsticks glazed in a sticky, sweet, and savory honey-garlic sauce, grilled to perfection. These drumsticks are finger-licking good and perfect for an outdoor feast.
- **Grilled Corn and Avocado Salad:** Fresh grilled corn tossed with creamy avocado, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and a zesty lime dressing. This salad is vibrant, refreshing, and pairs perfectly with those sticky drumsticks.
- **Loaded Baked Potato Salad:** A twist on the classic, this potato salad is loaded with crispy bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, green onions, and a creamy dressing. Itās like a loaded baked potato but in salad formācomforting and indulgent.
- **Garlic Butter Green Beans:** Fresh green beans sautƩed in garlic butter until tender-crisp, with a sprinkle of parmesan on top. This simple side dish is packed with flavor and adds a healthy balance to the meal.
- **Strawberry Shortcake Trifles:** Layers of buttery shortcake, fresh strawberries, and whipped cream, served in individual jars or cups. Itās a light, summery dessert thatās as fun to eat as it is to make.
This menu combines classic, comforting flavors with a bit of flair, making it the perfect way to celebrate the Labour Day weekend with family and friends. Enjoy every bite and soak up these last moments of summer!
Hope this episode blesses and inspires you! I'll see you in my next episode that drops Weds. š
