Texas Tenders

Today I have the great pleasure of sharing an exciting product with you. I was recently given the opportunity to try out the 30 Meals In One Day cookbooks and software. Add it to your Christmas list, its a WINNER! 30 Meals shares all the information you need to spend one day cooking and end up with 30 amazing meals setting in your freezer waiting to be eaten by your family. Think of all the time you will be saving!! I love the fact these recipes have already been tested (by someone else's family) and they taste amazing even after being frozen. I have tried freezing meals in the past to realize when the first bites taken it didn't freeze well! I'm so glad someone has done the "dirty" work! Even if you aren't interested in freezing meals, the cookbooks themselves will NOT disappoint. It's been a good, long while since I've gotten so excited looking through recipes. Almost all of them sound like something my family would love (that doesn't happen to often!). The set consists of three cookbooks: Lunch is Ready, Dinner is Ready and On the Side. The wonderful Texas Tenders I made were from the Lunch is Ready book. My husband's picky about his chicken and LOVED these tenders. They were extremely quick, easy and had a great flavor. We loved them dipped in ranch dressing. Stay tuned for more great recipes from these cookbooks. I can't wait to try more! At only $12.95 per book these would make great Christmas gifts. Wouldn't you love to give someone the gift of spending more time with their family and less time over the stove? Enjoy :)
