Entrees Made Easy

On Saturday when I got into town my Mom and I had an appointment at Entrees Made Easy. For those of you who don't know they are a new company in Great Falls that enables people to go to them and make up dinners that they can then take home and freeze. I wasn't really sure what to expect but it was a pretty cool place. First I went online (the week before my appointment) and choose from their menu for March the entrees that I wanted to make. Then menu changes each month. I picked 12 half orders plus one desert which cost me $123. Each entree serves 2-3 people. My Mom went with me to help me prepare everything and it took us about 45 minutes. They had stations set up with all of the ingredients and the recipe for how to put each entree together. It was super easy and really nice since everything is fresh and already chopped up for you. Sauces are made ahead of time so you just add those if needed. You can add more or less of certain ingredients for example if you don't like mushrooms you can leave them out. Jeff and I gave one a try last night and it was really good. For those of you who work and try to raise kids but don't like taking a long time to cook each night and don't like to eat out a lot, this is a great way to go. Here's a link to the website http://www.entreesmadeeasy.com/home_store.php I'm pretty sure I'll be doing it again.

That's great! My friend that I work with here works there every other Thursday because her sister owns that place. So I hear a TON about it. I have yet to try it out though. Glad you did and liked it. I sent on what you wrote about it and she said that was so nice and she's going to pass it on to her sister and partners. :)

I did entrees for myself a few weekd ago and we've been really happy with the food. It's so nice to have in the freezer for nights you don't want to worry about getting a meal together.
