30 Day Gourmet

Freezer Cook of the Month Winner

 

December 2004


 

Our winner this month is Kelli, with a great idea for giving the gift of 30 Day Gourmet! The perfect idea for that hard-to-buy for ________ (insert your favorites here... parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, friends) who have everything. And you still have time to put a gift-certificate/menu together before the holidays!

Kelli says:

I have an idea I would like to share with people for the holidays. Last year, I made menus on my computer with different sections for soups & salads, breakfast foods, casseroles, desserts, etc. My parents and both sets of grandparents received the menus for Christmas. Did I mention that my mom now hates to cook for just her and my dad? My grandmother is a widow, and my other sets of grandparents....well, I don't think she's cooked since her 5 kids moved out over 40 years ago. Anyway, they got to pick 30 items from the menu. They could mix and match or get 30 of one thing if they wanted. In January, I did the cooking and delivered the meals. They said it was the best gift ever! They were even willing to pay me to make more meals this past summer. Guess what they are getting again this Christmas? The only difference is I am cooking before Christmas this year. I know what everyone likes, so they will actually receive their meals on Christmas day. I tell you, this reduced so much of my stress! I never know what to get for them. They have everything they need. 30 Day Gourmet was the perfect gift, and it was made with love!
 

So, how do you make 30 Day Gourmet work for you? How do you use it to help you deal with a challenge in your life? Do you have a funny story about your cooking day? How do you use it to help others? Email me at tammy@30daygourmet.com or post your story on our message boards to be entered in our contest. Congratulation, Kelli!! Thanks for sharing your great idea with us! Our families thank you too!

 

Update to our November 2004 Freezer Cook of the Month winner:

After the Nov News went out, I received emails from a couple of people advising me that the USDA recommends you don't cook a whole chicken from frozen in a slow cooker, because it doesn't reach a 'safe' temperature quick enough, so there's a concern for food poisoning.  We obviously don't want that!  Read what they have to say about it, and decide for yourself if and/or how you want to use this method to cook chicken.
