I thought that many of you would enjoy this post by Mama and Baby Love. It’s all about freezer cooking with a slow cooker!
That is my style of freezer cooking, because you don’t have to actually cook anything before you freeze it!
Okay, so this is probably one of the simplest fruits you can freeze, but I thought I’d let you know how I do it!
Yesterday I had the opportunity to pick some raspberries with a friend. We tried to pay, but she wouldn’t take our money! What an unexpected blessing! Since it’s just my husband and I, I knew we wouldn’t be able to eat them all before they went bad so I decided to freeze some for smoothies or whatever we fancy.
Here’s the the instructions for the simplest fruit to freeze:
I really like freezing fruits as I think they’re often easier to freeze then canning. And I like the fact that I freeze them in their natural state. No added sugar!

Thanks, Andrea!

I found out about a great free ebook from The Nourishing Gourmet! Download (PDF) Healthy 4 Life by the Weston Price Foundation for free! The book is full of “Real Food” recipes and tips for the “Real Food” diet!

100Daysof RealFood.com has a supermarket real food cheat sheet available for free download (pdf)! The family behind 100 Days of Real Food recently took a real food pledge where they did not eat any highly processed foods for 100 days. They couldn’t eat anything out of package with more than 5 ingredients or anything containing white flour or refined sugar (among other things).
The cheat sheet they have available is an 11-page list of all the items you could buy from the supermarket without breaking the “real food” rules. So it is basically all of the foods in the grocery store that are not highly processed.
Although the cheat sheet lists thing you can get at Earth Fare (a US business) you can still apply mos tof the items to any store in Canada!
