Last night I made Apricot Pork Chops 2 servings at 9 pts each. 
The recipe was so easy and it was a slow cooker recipe which made it easier yet! All I did is put sliced carrots and onions on the bottom of the crock pot. Then I placed the pork chops on top of the carrots and onions, salt and peppered the pork chops and then poured the 4 ingredient sauce over the top. It cooked for 6 hours - by the way smelled great!
Along with the main recipe eMeals they give you ideas for sides. This one gave me directions for Roasting Green Beans. Many times it will have you make a side that you will use for two nights. I didn’t make the green beans last night - just served it with some noodles - but dinner was so good!! Here is a picture of it. Rex liked that it was something new to eat and loved the flavor of the sauce and having the carrots.
Tonight I am making Smothered Pepper Steak with Mashed Potatoes. I love that most of the recipes in this plan are easy to do and each week there is a variety of different meals ~ including Pork, Beef, Chicken, Seafood and even vegetarian meals.
The shopping list makes it easy to shop and Dave Ramsey, Financial Planning celebrity and TV show host supports eMeals and how it helps families save around $1,000/year.
If you are looking for a way to save money and help you plan meals eMeals is the plan to help you. If you don’t like the plan you choose you can always change to another one. They even have healthy breakfast and lunch plans you can choose.
