Is there a certain brand that make White Chili Seasoning? I have never heard of this. Thanks. I am going to work on making this menu this weekend and had a question about the Chili.

I also follow weight watchers and wondered how this would work. I haven't cooked anything yet, need to go grocery shopping and get started. I have calculated points on some of the recipes and they don't seem too bad so I figured if I make some revisions it might really work out well for me. I can always eat a smaller portion and have a big salad and veggies with it. How is it working for you? Hi Kim. I also follow weight watchers and wondered how this would work.

So my first OAM cooking experience was yesterday and it was positive! My boyfriend was my cooker heler. We halved everything, and we omitted the black beans & rice, marsala, and chicken & chiles. We started around 11am, and we finished up around 4:30. Not bad at all! Let me tell you though - bad move putting the Apple Muffins at the beginning of the day! I was eating them all day long! They're half gone! I'm really looking forward to the ease of cooking on weeknights from now on. I'm not a fan of pumpkin, so October's menu wont work for me, but I think I'm going to go back and cook July's menu next month! Thanks for putting this all together! :) I just found this website last week, and decided to give it a try! So my first OAM cooking experience was yesterday and it was positive!

It took four days! The first day I finished the chopping and baking when my daughter came home with a bloody lip from falling asleep on the school bus and fell out her seat. Stopped everything and took her to the after hours clinic. The next morning I realized I grabbed chick peas instead of great northern beans for the white chili and had to drive back into town (I live out in the country in Texas). I also had lots of breaks to stop and nurse my 3 month old. All in all, I had a terrific time cooking. Next week I have my in-laws coming in and I'm totally prepared. I've already downloaded the October grocery list, and I'll take advantage of some awesome sales this month whenever I'm in town. I'm already thinking ahead to Christmas because I'll have everyone at my house for two weeks! Thanks so much for the time and effort you have put into this, it's already blessing my family.

It took us about 9 1/2 hours today and we chopped everything yesterday. It was a lot of work, but it will be so gratifying to open up the freezer and take out a meal for the night and get to spend some quality time with my 2 year old daughter while dinner is cooking in the oven. Thanks for the great organization. I can't wait to try everything! I do have to say that the Apple Streusel muffins were FABULOUS! I did make some lighter substitutions because I am following Weight Watchers. Can't wait to try everything! My Mom and I did the September month’s recipes today.

I felt like I was eating at a restaurant. I'm thinking about doing up a batch of 8 of these one day so we can have it once a week for two months! Or I can pull out two when we have company because it is definitely guest worthy. Can I just say the Chicken Marsala is DELISH!!! I felt like I was eating at a restaurant.

I am cooking it by myself and going to stock my freezer and my mom's who has some health issues. So I am taking my time, but so far it has been so nice and easy to make only like 8 more things to make. they will have to wait to next weekend. Thanks for all you do. this is my first time to cook all the items and it was really so easy to follow!!! Well I am about half way through the september menu.
