Simple Strategies for Feeding the Family

I had the privilege of sharing Simple Strategies for Feeding the Family at Your Best Homeschool Year Ever online summit with Lori Lane and The End in Mind. To complement that, I am sharing some favorite resources for feeding the family – all in one spot – so they are easy to find.

Simple Strategies for Feeding the Family

I do two things to set myself up for success:

1. Make a meal plan. Take suggestions from the audience. Everyone gets a favorite meal. But, keep it simple. Just a few ingredients. I promise you won’t be feeling like being a prize-winning chef after tackling fractions.

2. Have a Big Cook. A big cook is just a fun name for batch cooking and tucking meals and main ingredients in the freezer.

Resources for Feeding the Family

Some favorite, go-to links and how tos for feeding the family. Because after a day of back to school, Mama is usually tapped out. So, I want you to use your slow cooker and be armed with recipes. All you’ll need to do is tuck the ingredients into the slow cooker while you are making lunch. Voila! Tasty supper and you can put your feet up and rest, Mama.

About Hodgepodgemom

Tricia faces a daily dose of chaos homeschooling five children. The biggest lesson she’s learned? At the end of the day – when the dishes are put away and the children are tucked in bed – truly what matters is each child’s relationship with the Lord. Raising children is a God-given privilege and, folks, the time is short.
