Hello!
I hope everyone is having an amazing Labor Day Weekend! We decided to give the small box a try because we were finding the large box to be just a bit too much. It was a great variety & good amount of stuff, but we found ourselves not being able to quite eat up all of it. So, we'll give the small box a try for the next 4 weeks. The past few weeks I have found the need to flip flop a few recipes. Be flexible with your meal planning. The great thing about planning ahead is that you have a plan and can adapt it as the week goes on. At least you will already have shopped and have the ingredients at home all ready to go no matter what meal you decide on that night. I am also trying out some recipes from a great new website I discovered, www.crockpotgirls.com With the busy Fall Schedule coming up, I will most likely be doing quite a few of these recipes!

1 bunch Orange Carrots
