:: THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED. CLICK HERE TO SEE IF WE HAVE A NEW GIVEAWAY ON BBA.
We’re giving away a ONE YEAR SUBSCRIPTION TO RELISH! along with a gift from Crate and Barrel to one lucky BBA reader. See the details at the end of this post.
A fellow baby blog addict and friend, Danielle, kept updating her facebook status with amazing dinners she was cooking for her family. One day it was, “Danielle is cooking Deconstructed Lasagna with Mushrooms, Spinach and Turkey Italian Sausage.” Another day was “Almond Crusted Chicken Fingers with Honey Mustard Sauce” and yet another was “Peanut Noodles and Sesame Asparagus”. YUM! You should see the comments she gets. Everyone wants to move in with her.
I thought she needed to start a blog with all these recipes, but she confessed that the secret to her amazing dinners is a menu planning service called relish! at relishrelish.com. When I asked how she likes it, she said, “We are still doing it and we love it! The food is always soooo good. I am obsessed with a single weekly shopping trip with an organized list. I think you will love it.”
Relish! touts itself as putting an end to agonizing trips to the grocery store and 5:00 stare-downs with the fridge…something I’m all too familiar with. You choose your weekly recipes (you pick five out of fifteen choices), the grocery list is tabulated, shop once a week and have all of the ingredients needed for five meals.
There’s even a Dime and Dash category offering menus that are easier on the wallet, kid-friendly options, low cal and vegetarian. They also offer a gluten-free site (gfreecuisine.com). A 3-month subscription is $21.00, 6 months is $35.70 and 1 year is $58.80. That’s as little as 16 cents per day.
We are trying out Relish! in our own household, so I’ll give you an update in the next couple of weeks to let you know how its working for our family.
Here’s how to enter our giveaway for a 1-Year Relish! Subscription plus a gift from Crate and Barrel:
1) Go to the Relish!
2) Earn one entry by leaving a comment on this post telling us what you like best about the service after visiting their site.
3) Earn one extra entry by becoming a BBA Follower in our left column and letting us know in a separate comment. If you are already a follower, you can still earn an extra entry by just letting us know in a separate comment. Make sure we have your contact info (email or blog address) in your blogger profile or comment itself, so we can contact you if you win.
4) This giveaway ends: Thursday, 2/26 at 8:00 PM ET. We’ll select a random winner then post their name here on BBA and email them after the contest ends. Good luck!
I LOVE that they have soo many options! My hubby is so picky so this is great! With a new baby we could really use the pre planned dinner ideas! It would help a lot!

I love that all the meals are prepared in 30 minutes or less and kitchen tested. I am no chef and need something I can do.

I love the lists. I am forever making the same thing because we are missing one or two things to make something different!

Quick meals, healthy looking, grocery list, and so many options! It looks like a great site, and a lot cheaper than similar ones I’ve seen.

i love that i wouldn’t have to meal plan. i hate that.
WoW! I am 5 months pregnant and thinking this is the coolest thing ever hubby and I always have the hardest time deciding what to have for dinner. I am so signing up!
I’m now a follower!
That’s a really neat site. I’m always looking for new dinner ideas instead of the same old stuff over and over!

i love the organized shopping lists… that would be a huge help!
I like how they organize the shopping list by aisle. It seems like I’m always back tracking when I go shopping.

An organized shopping list would be great along with some new ideas for dinner.
I’m a follower now too!
Relish! sounds like a great way to plan meals for the week and eat healthy. Sounds like a great service!
i love that there are kid friendly options!! a must with toddlers!
I love that the grocery list is all ready for me. I don’t have to write anything down its all there for me. Because I have 6 children (4 of which are 1 yr old quadruplets) this would simplify my life. Love it!
I just became BBA Follower. i have been meaning to do this for a while. Love the site!
I love the fact that the meals only take about 30 minutes to prepare. When I get home from work, the last thing I want to do is spend an hour cooking, cleaning, etc. I want to spend as much time as I can with my baby and my husband.

I love the shopping list – with the stuff you might have already column.
Great idea.
I love that all the dinners are kitchen tested. I also love that they give you the grocery list you need to make your dinners. And the dinners are affordable and probably easy to make. Wow this would totally make my life easier. It’s hard trying to come up with dinners all the time.
An organized list is my favorite part. I think that making a grocery list is worse than the actual shopping!!!!
i like that you can choose your meals
The menus seem easy to understand. I especially like that the amount you’re cooking for can be scaled.
Above all else I love that they have a gluten free site. It can be so time consuming to find good gf recipes. My son has Celiac disease.
I’m a follower
I love that everything can be made without spending hours in the kitchen. The freezer meal options and versatility in choosing which entrees to make is great too!
I am now following your blog and on Twitter as well. So glad to have found your blog!
I like that you can plan your weekly meals easily. cool giveaway.

I love that I don’t have to think about the grocery list–it’s already there!
I like the comprehensive grocery list.
Thanks for the giveaway!

i love the 30 minutes or less of prep time and the grocery list, how great is that!
steele(dot)kerri(at)gmail(dot)com
I love the shopping list they make.. that’s half of my problem.. sitting down and fishing through cookbooks and making lists. Ugh.
I’m a follower too!
With my super-busy schedule, I love that the meals take 30 minutes or less to prep. Crossing fingers to win.
The grocery list sounds like a dream! I am so not a list maker, and this would really help!
I have been a follower for a long time, and I know that one day I will win something!
Great site. Love the grocery list!
I love that dinners are 30 minutes or less!
I love how much variety they offer and how quick the meals are! I have just started getting into cooking since I had my baby- and I seem to cook the same 4 things over and over- my whole family would appreciate this!!
I not only love the variety, but the fact that the dinners take 30 minutes or less of prep. Thanks!
