Go to the Freezer and Get the... Wildtree!

Do you remember that commercial? The one where the tired Mom directs her child to "go to the freezer and get the box". That has always been a saying in my family's household, that is until I found Wildtree.

In our busy lives, we, as spouses, moms, dads, entrepreneurs, faithful employees, volunteers, chauffeurs, (and so on and so fourth) we often resort to the quick fixes for meals: frozen pizzas, or dinners, take out or fast food. I hear it all the time at my parties!

Here is a fantastic idea to help you find HEALTH in your freezer instead of all of those nasty preservatives!

Once a week, or once a month, set aside some time to PRE-pare your meals! It's so easy, and way more tasty and LOTS more healthy than our frozen old friends.


Items Needed:
Best of Wildtree 8-Pack of Spices
Wildtree Infused Grapeseed Oil Set
Quart Size freezer bags or larger



Step 1. - Go grab your 8-Pack (or any Wildtree Spices) and your Infused Oil Set.




Step 2 - Grab whatever meat you were able to get on sale at the grocery story. You can use a variety of your favorites...pork chops, chicken, steak, fish, etc.


Step 3 - Trim up your meat to your liking


Step 3: Grab 5 freezer bags. Choose 5 Spice Blends from your Wildtree 8-Pack. Measure 2tsp of each blend and place in individual bags.


Step 4. Measure 2 TBS of your favorite Wildtree Grapeseed Oil for each bag.


Here are 5 different meal ideas!!

Bag 1: 2 tsp Fajita Blend & 2 TBS Natural Grapeseed Oil
Bag 2: 2tsp Garlic Galore & Garlic Grapeseed Oil
Bag 3: 2 tsp Scampi Blend & Garlic Grapseed Oil
Bag 4: 2 tsp Cajun Blend & Jalepeno Flavor Grapeseed Oil
Bag 5: 2 tsp lemon rosemary Blend & Lemon Grapeseed Oil

BONUS MEAL: 2tsp Ranchers Steak Rub & 2TBS of Hickory Grapeseed Oil

*These are just suggestions! You can add any spice/oil combo you wish!! Mix it up each week for lots of variety!

Step 5: Place two pieces of chicken (or pork chops, fish, steak, ground turkey, sausage, etc) in each bag and press to close.

Step 6: Simply smash the oil and the spice blends in each bag. Meat should be thoroughly coated.

Step 7: Label your bag with what combo it is and the date and put each in the freezer!.


Simply take out one baggie in the morning before you go to work or before you start your day and place in refrigerator! When you arrive home for dinner, the meat has marinated, thawed and is ready for you to Simply bake for 25 minutes (350 degrees) or throw it on the grill!

Meal Planning made simple (and healthy!).
