From what I understand, you buy all the ingredients fresh (chicken breasts, veggies, etc), chop them up, toss all the uncooked ingredients together in a bag with the spices, and then freeze the bag. When you want to eat the meal, pull the bag out of the freezer and put it in the fridge the night before, and the next day, you put the contents of the bag in the skillet, pot, or baking dish and cook it.
So it really just saves the prep time, but you might not get so sick of the food as if you had spent all day cooking.
I haven't tried the Mega Menu Mailer, but I plan to because all of the other recipes of hers that I have tried were DELICIOUS!!! And HEALTHY and EASY!!!

I have used these and they are supper easy, and very heatly also! I am cooking for just myself so I do split some of the recipes into 2 packages and then I have 2 packages instead if one. The recipe pages come with a prep day list and a cooking day list and I always put the cooking day one right in the outside bag so I don't have to go hunting for it when I need to make it. The whole thing comes as a pdf that you just print off.
