20 Meals {Giveaway}

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!
Would you like to win 20 meals (you add the meat, canned good)??
Here’s what one winner will get:

    That's really neat. We had something like that in my town called Supper Suppers but you went to their location and assembled the meals and then took them home and froze them. My husband went and made all of the meals for our honeymoon.
