Gift Basket Giveaway!!!

I received a Red Gold gift box that contained great products from Red Gold and needless to say I use their tomato products in everything pasta related.  Products were sent to me directly from the company for my opinions of their product.  Well, I am here to say that I just love them.  If you have never tried them, consider trying their products today.  The red tomatoes are in the can but when you open the can and place them onto your plate, you can see the freshness of the product.  They pick their tomatoes at the peek of freshness. The tomatoes are soft and smell great! I decided to make this giveaway very special for the winner.  You will receive a wonderful crafted gift basket with great cooking products including 2 wonderful cans of Red Gold tomato products. Other items included in the gift basket are a red/white apron, red napkins, red measuring cups, timer, candle, spatula, tongs, bowel, oven mitt and crafted in a beautiful red keepsake basket with wonderful decorations! It is a perfect gift for a new chef, someone who enjoys the color red as well as cooking, etc.

    I plan my meals out so when I go to the grocery store I know what to buy to make each meal. It help so I do not buy frivorously…I love to use sauces left over in another meal.

  6. debbie says

    I save in meal prep by buying things like chicken breast, slicing them up and freezing the size I need to cook with. That way, I don't have to handle any raw meat, just take out and defrost.

  11. KN says

    This week I made a white bean soup with carrots, celery, onion, and pieces of ham. Yum! Then I froze half so we can eat it later.

  12. KN says

    I save time by cooking once and using what I've cooked more than once. For instance, we make a crockpot roast to eat for dinner, then we use the leftovers in other recipes for freezing or eating later in the week (such as soup, etc.)

  13. Terri says

    I like to make my own pizza crusts from scratch. I top it with a can of tomato sauce and add some Italian seasoning. Plain cheese for the boys. For us we like red onion, black olives, fresh tomatoes and mushrooms. Super quick and very tasty. terri.moore30@yahoo.com

  17. Becky Bryant says

    I always have to cook for a lot of people because I have a son living with me and two grandchildren I am raising. I do a lot of couponing to stretch the budget and I could larger portions so I can freeze some for later on.

  25. lucy24 says

    I buy in bulk usually so I break up meats and freeze them. My boyfriend usually makes homemade soups as well and freezes them. When its time during week, all we have to do is defrost and heat up. Simple!!

  28. ashley says

    When I actually get a chance to cook, I make a double portion to freeze and use later. Then, all I have to do is throw it in the oven or crock pot. Zero prep!!

  29. About A Mom says

    That is such a nice gift basket. I would love to receive something like that! I try to buy in bulk whenever possible and I use coupons to save money on our meals.

  31. ashley says

    Crock pot teriyaki pork chops! Pork chops, soy sauce, broth, garlic and brown sugar. Even my 3 year old (who doesn't eat anything with sauce or seasoning!) eat it and asked for more!!

  35. Kecia says

    That brand sounds familiar…I will have to see if I can find it the next time we go shopping! I tend to eat 3-4 servings of veggies each day, and I save money on them by sometimes purchasing frozen or canned (in water only) varieties.

  36. Woman Tribune says

    We have started a small garden in hopes of being able to grow a lot of our own vegetables. This year the outcome wasn't so good, but it was our first year so I am hoping next year is better.

  38. Dawn Pruitt says

    I love Red Gold products and always buy the fresh veggies that are on sale and make meals according to what I have but I have to admit I don't eat enough vegetables daily.

  48. Unknown says

    I save time in meal preparation by using rotisserie chicken in some recipes that require shredded chicken. I also cook large meals and freeze portions for use as needed. I would like to freeze more meals in advance and I believe there is a person that blogs on freezer preparation. (just type in freezer preparation in google)

  50. Paula Schuck says

    These sound like good products, but I don't think they are available here in canada. Too bad for us. I will look for them next time I am in the US. Thanks!
