Now closed. Winners will be announced soon.
*UPDATED* I just spoke to the founder of Homemade Gourmet about the touching comments on this giveaway. Since she blessed me with such a great array of products, I told her I wanted to give away my unopened Let's Make Dinner Collection to a second winner AND she said she wanted to MATCH that! So, there will be THREE winners. I'm extending this giveaway and will announce the winner on Friday.
Anyone else's life hectic right now?
We have minimized, reduced and cut back Christmas this year, but with 2 birthdays and an anniversary this week of Christmas, we are busy.
The last thing I want to give up is our family dinner time. I'm not worried. Why, you ask? Because I've been stocking up my freezer with Homemade Gourmet!
A few weeks ago, I was sent a huge assortment of dinner mixes and seasonings. I wasn't really familiar with this system, but it's easy to learn. There are several options, but my favorite is the 4 Meals in 4 Minutes.
These handy tubs hold the spices and the easy instructions tell you how to assemble the meals:
It's so simple, my nearly 10 year old, prepared nearly two weeks worth of meals! (Each ziplock contains 3 pounds of meat (pork, beef or chicken). You can slow cook, bake or grill. You cook all the meat, but only use half.
Step 1: put meat of your choice in a ziplock bag:
2. Pour in a can of (broth/cream of mushroom-the recipe will tell you) into the bag:
3. Add a spoonful of the included spices and zip it closed, pushing all the air out:
4. Smoosh it all together:
5. Freeze:
So easy, a 91/2 year old girl can do it!

What a fun giveaway! I love it when a meal can be mostly prepared ahead of time.
That sounds super yummy!
This would be great to have on hand after I have a c-section in March!!
Everyday it seems like I need assistance in getting dinner ready - this would be wonderful!
What a great idea, just add some fresh veggies and you're all there! I'm concerned about what schools are using to disinfect for H1N1. Cleaning supplies are often more hazardous than the H1N1virus itself. Here are some resources to help parents determine what their schools are using, and what they should be using: H1N1 in Schools and Environmental Working Group Report on Schools It all starts with asking your school how often they clean it (EVERY DAY should be the answer!).
I have never heard of such a thing...how interesting. Yes, please enter me to win! Thank you.
I've never heard of this. I went to the website and am quite intrigued. I would love to try it!

We could so use some of these. My brother and his wife just had a baby boy 2 weeks ago. They had to fly him to Arkansas Children's Hospital from Portland, OR because he needs a heart transplant. After being at the hospital all day it is hard to come home and think about eating let alone cooking for all of us. We are so glad they are here though and that we can love on them and help to meet their needs.
Wow! More than 350 comments! Guess EVERYBODY could stand to win some dinner! :-)
Wow. This looks awesome. If I win, I may just have to buy a bigger freezer!
Oops, I entered in the wrong post, so let me enter correctly. I was just recently introduced to HG, and it was delicious. Please enter me for the drawing.

Nice idea. I love easy, fast and convinent. :-)
We keep saying we are going to do this sort of thing. Now we will have a reason!
Definitely! I'd love to win!
I've been cooking this way for 6 months and have saved so much money and had such delicious meals i don't know that I could go back to cooking any other way. I even became a consultant with Homemade Gourmet to share it with others. So glad that you're enjoying your meals. The Italian Pear chicken is our new favorite.

This would make my meal planning easy!
Thanks!
Yummy! Sign me up please!
A long time ago I used to prepare and freeze a whole months worth of meals. It really made everything so much easier! Since adding 3 more kids to the mix, I haven't kept up and I really need to get back into doing this again. I'm going to check out the site. This is an awesome give-away!
OMG This would be HEAVEN for me! I HATE cooking (and really, I'm not that good at it either) and am always looking for an easy way to prepare healthy, tasty meals!
I would love to win this. Going through six months of outpatient IV infusions, I come home from several draining hours at the infusions center and still need to feed my family. These would be a delightful addition to our routeine! (I would also share some with a friend whose finances are super tight right now and would probably buy the meet to go with them when I give them to her).

My three, never full, always hungry, love good homecooked meals sons told me to sign up. :)
Preparing ahead ALWAYS makes sense!
I would love to win this!! My son and daughter LOVE to help me in the kitchen-- I think cooking with them is so important. As a working outside and inside the home Mom who volunteers time also, I think dining and eating home-cooked food is SO important, but I do run out of time for it often-- I would love a system that makes this possible for all my meals!!
Thanks for the opportunity to win.

These look delicious! Cheers,

This would be so useful for us right now! My husband cooks and I clean. But he has a sports injury that put in him in the hospital. I took over the cooking detail but homemade meals went out the window when he was in the hospital because I had to be there with him as much as possible. He's home now, but still healing. Having some homemade quick cook meal options in the freezer would help me out greatly!
This is awesome. :)
Now that's my kind of cooking. (I'm a terrible cook, but this sounds easy.) Please enter me.
This is the giveaway of giveaways! Thanks so much,
Ooohh, simplified meals. LLOOOOVVVEEE IIITTTTT!

Please...I know some out there have more hectic lives, but our little family (3 kids under 5) would love it! Our van was stolen on Thanksgiving, so things haven't been as festive around here. Plus, my hubby is a volunteer responder, so mealtime is always uncertain. Thank you sooooo much!
What a fantastic giveaway!
My daughter is 11 and loves to cook dinner, what a great way for her and I to spend some fun time preparing dinners together!
Wow! What a fantastic concept! I am a full-time student of 5 children. I would love this! Heck, I could even put my kids to work prepping the meals and then hubs would have no excuse not to help out once in awhile making by making one!
Thanks for the chance.
This is such an amazing idea!! Thank you for the opportunity to win!!
