What people are saying about Meals for a Month...

"I eagerly anticipated receiving Kristy's e-book, 'Meals for a Month – Volume 1', and upon receiving it, started reading right away. The following words caught my eye: … how often do we drag ourselves into the kitchen, stare inside the fridge or a cabinet, and wail, "I just don't know WHAT to cook today!"

Yes, yes, I said excitedly! It seems as though this was written precisely for me and about me. That very morning, after completing my cleaning chores and with lunch time approaching, I blankly stared inside my refrigerator and freezer, trying to make my brain work out the never-ending Question of Questions: 'what's for dinner?', accompanied by 'not lentil soup again?!' and 'aren't there any leftovers from the weekend?'

'Meals for a Month' proved to be everything it promised and more. Kristy's passion for wholesome, natural foods is evident through many of the recipes. As a vegetarian, I was particularly enthusiastic about recipes that featured lots of beans and vegetables, but the meat-eaters among you, I'm certain, will find many creative and inexpensive solutions as well. And all will enjoy the wonderful money- and time-saving tips that Kristy generously shares with us. I especially recommend it for beginner homemakers who want to be more organized in the menu-planning department but don't know where to start."

As I read through Meals for a Month, Volume 1, I  was delighted with the simplicity and practicality of the recipes and ideas. Although Kristy's recipes use mostly whole foods, she's also not above including a recipe or two that may include a "box-mix" cake or other not-quite-from-scratch ingredient. This first book in the Meals for a Month Series begins with an overview of menu planning and Kristy's ideas on lunches. The four following chapters each open with one or two breakfast ideas, followed by recipes for that week's meals.

The way Kristy has written out the week's menus is the best part about this book! Each day has a full dinner menu - main dish, side dish if appropriate, and sometimes even dessert and included throughout the menus are "Timesaver Tips" that let the cook know when to make extra and save it to be used later in the week, what ingredients can be prepared the night before, etc. This is a great tool for someone new to menu planning, or even a veteran menu-planner who just wants to let someone else handle the job for a little while. Kristy makes it simple to serve well-balanced, nutritious meals for your family without having to put a lot of thought into the menu!
