About Prupetta's Kitchen


Prupetta's Kitchen started began when I was pregnant with my daughter, Hannah. I knew as a new mom, I wouldn't have much time or energy for cooking. So, instead, I began cooking whole meals and stocking the freezer with them. The more I thought about it, the more I realized how many other people would benefit from doing this same thing. Not just busy moms, but people who can't cook (or just don't like to!), or work long hours, or would be out of commission due to surgery, or... There are a million reasons people don't cook for themselves. Everyone is just so BUSY going about our daily lives, we tend to fall back on takeout and fast food.


We all deserve better. We all deserve to have a hot, home-cooked meal once in a while, and that's where Prupetta's comes in. Some genius out there came up with the concept of "once a month cooking". (Wish I could take credit for it but, alas, this was around long before I discovered it.) You take the meal out of the freezer, and once it's defrosted, follow the last few steps to get dinner on the table with minimal effort. My humble little blog will help you sort through all the websites, cookbooks, random recipes, and ideas that make stocking your freezer easier, faster, and a whole lot tastier.


So go ahead, stay a little late at work. Spend an extra hour playing with the kids. Try on that one last pair of shoes. Dinner will be ready when you are.
