Meal Prep & Leftover Tips

Crock Pot Guinness Pot Roast: To replace the Guinness you can substitute non-alcoholic beer or beef broth or mix broth with balsamic vinegar for depth.

Roasted Brussels Sprouts: For the best flavor and texture, choose fresh Brussels sprouts that are bright green and firm to the touch.


Easy Roasted Broccoli: By cooking the broccoli at a high temperature, the broccoli tips and edges get caramelized and slightly charred.


Dinner rolls made with garlic, butter and Parmesan cheese made from store bought rolls made in a cast iron skillet.

Garlic Parmesan Skillet Rolls: If you don’t have a cast-iron skillet, you can use a baking dish instead. They can be prepared ahead of time and reheated in the oven before serving.


Glazed orange muffins stacked on top of each other on a cutting board.

Glazed Orange Muffins: To get that perfect dome on the muffins, bake the muffins at 425°F for 5 minutes, THEN LOWER TEMPERATURE TO 375°F and bake for another 12-15 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.


Stacked egg salad sandwiches served for lunch.

Egg Salad Sandwiches: This classic egg salad will last in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Grab some pre-made croissants, and you’ll have easy lunches to get you through the week.


Crock Pot Turkey Stock: Follow the same directions for making chicken stock to make Turkey stock.


Homemade Turkey Noodle Soup made in the crock pot is light, flavorful and made with the best leftovers making it perfect for an easy, comfort food meal.

Turkey Noodle Soup: This soup uses ingredients you’ll most likely have leftover from Thanksgiving—turkey, onions, celery, and carrots in your homemade turkey stock.
