More than two years ago, the six of us were all working, as well as full time wives and mommies. We each wanted to provide nutritious, home cooked food for our families, but knew we needed to get creative. We decided to try freezer meals. It's now been more than two years since we started and we love it! We don't have to settle for fast food on busy nights, and the stress of what to make for dinner has been eliminated!
There are six of us Supper Hero Moms: Amy, Hillary, Kathy, Megan C., Megan D., and Miken. When we first started, we did everything via group text or Facebook messages. Since then, we have created a private Facebook page that we use to communicate - we choose the date of our next exchange, what foods to prepare to prevent overlap, reviews on what we've tried so far, etc. After we choose a date (usually once every two to three months), we each pick two meals that we will prepare and swap.
The group has a budget of $5-7 per meal, and each meal must feed at least four people. On our own, we prepare the meals, write instructions, and then freeze them at home. We get together at Megan D.'s house to do the exchange. We each walk away with 12 prepared freezer meals, ready to be thawed, cooked, and enjoyed!
