Meal prep magic

Becoming a mom was the most wonderful experience of my life, but it also made me busier than I ever imagined. With that, I found my days slipping by, often realizing it was already five o'clock and I had no plans for dinner. I didn’t want to spend extra money eating out, I didn’t want to take forever to prepare a meal, and I certainly didn’t want to feel stressed about it.

One day while preparing a large pot of chili, I looked at it and thought, wow, we might be eating this for the next three days. Then it struck me: what if I freeze it? Would it thaw out well? A quick search on Google and I put it in the fridge. I forgot about it until about two weeks later on a cold, gloomy day. After running around and cleaning the house, I wondered what I should make for dinner. Chili sounded appealing, and then I remembered I had some in the freezer. I pulled it out, let it sit for a few minutes to thaw, and then set it on high in the slow cooker—dinner was ready! It still tasted great, and I didn’t have to cook anything.

I realized that this simple solution could not only relieve my stress but could also help other families. If you’re a busy working mom, a stay-at-home dad, or just someone searching for quick weeknight dinners that can be prepared in about 30 minutes—whether you’re a new mom or in any stage of life—I wanted to create a space online to make your life just a bit easier. Let me be part of your support network and assist you with the timeless question: what’s for dinner? Welcome to Ready Nest Co!
