Shabbat and Thrive

My husband and I love celebrating the Sabbath.  It's a wonderful time for us to wind down, rest and spend time focusing on important things:  the Lord, each other, friends, family, etc.  Work is set aside for one day and one of the ways I'm learning to incorporate Thrive into our Sabbath is to prepare a meal in advance, using Thrive foods.  It's easy, quick, and all we had to do was heat up the casserole I'd tossed together the day before.  :-)  

Casserole recipe:

1 1/2 cups of THRIVE seasoned chicken slices
1 cup of THRIVE green beans
1 cup of THRIVE sweet corn
1/2 cup of THRIVE green onions
2 cups of THRIVE instant brown rice
Shredded parmesan cheese
THRIVE Chef's Choice seasoning

Re-hydrate all the THRIVE ingredients as indicated on each can.  Cook the brown rice as directed on the THRIVE can.  Toss all ingredients together in a square glass dish. Add about a Tbsp. of the Chef's Choice seasoning and mix well. Sprinkle the cheese on top.  

You can either cook it immediately in the oven for about 15 min until everything is hot, or you can put it in the refrigerator and heat it later.

Fast food alternative that is actually HEALTHY!

My hubby and I went bike riding this past weekend and enjoyed the gorgeous weather!  We really didn't want the ride to end, but we had an event in the evening that we needed to prepare for...and I remembered we needed to bring a main dish.  Well, arriving home at 4, knowing I had to leave at 4:45 and what had to happen in 45 minutes included preparing a main dish as well as showering and getting dressed, I began to weigh my options.  Of course I could have run to a fast food place and picked up a bucket of chicken or some Chinese food, but who knows what's in those dishes these days, and the cost in both time, gas and cost of the food to feed 8 people were all counted and promptly dismissed as an option.

Instead, I opened my cupboard and pulled out two Thrive Express main dish packets of Southwestern Style Chicken and Rice.  In just 15 minutes, I had prepared a main dish for 8 people.  No rush, no extra money, no "unknown ingredients", and a healthy dish ready to go, with plenty of time for a quick shower!  

Why not check out THRIVE EXPRESS HERE yourself and watch how much money you end up saving as well as how much healthier you end up eating!

How prepared are you for emergencies? How about to help others after disasters?

I love hearing about the out-pouring of help that takes place after disasters like the tornado which just hit Moore, OK.  So many people need so much. 

Thrive Life not only has food products, but also emergency supplies.  You can find everything from water filters to stoves to tents and snake bite kits.  

Today, I am highlighting the Steripen Sidewinder, an amazing, battery free, UV water purification system that purifies 8,000 liters of water!  Having one of these on hand after the power goes out, on a camping trip, after a tornado blows through, or for any other "emergency" situation would bring peace of mind, and fresh water, free of bacteria and viruses.
