Not long now (if all goes as planned) until the release of the new Project Organize Your Entire Life eBook – Freezy Peasy: Freezer Cooking Made Easy. To celebrate, and to thank you guys for being such loyal readers, I thought it would be fun to give you a sneak peak.

As a clean eater, how do you feel about the meat and cheese from these warehouse chains? I also struggle with how to do this freezer planning (which I started a few months ago) without filling up my trash with lots of plastic and waste…what do you think? Is it just a small tradeoff in the grand scheme?
Hi Abi,
Great question. I would describe myself more on the road to becoming a clean eater. What I learned from the lovely ladies at Prescribe Nutrition was really how my body feels when I fill it with whole foods. So right now my goal is to cut out sugar and processed foods as much as possible. It’s a process and I hope to keep making progress with it.
As for the waste associated with freezer planning. I try my best to use glass whenever I can but I agree, its not always ideal.
Thanks for the information, ideas and list.. I try so hard to be organized in this area but never feel that I am accomplishing much. Good to know its not always easy for others, either, but so worth doing!
Where r white bins from? Thx!
