Perry’s Plate Blogiversary + Blendtec Giveaway
I can’t believe I’ve been at this for five years! Happy Birthday little blog!
Since I started reading food blogs and starting my own I’ve always wanted to give away a Kitchen-Aid stand mixer. I think it was seeing those shiny, colorful mixers on Pioneer Woman’s blog that created a slight giveaway-envy inside of me. I love giving people things they like, and everyone loves those things.
Fast forward five years… I still love Ruby, my pretty red stand mixer, but because we’ve cleaned up our diet which resulted in far less baking, she collects some dust every now and then. I never thought I would ever have an appliance that I loved as much as (or more than) Ruby, but it’s happened. Twice.
First, my food processor. And now this incredibly powerful Blendtec blender that sits on my counter and gets used at least once, sometimes 2-3 times a day.
As you might know, if you’ve ever shopped for one of these, they are rather pricey. When we considered getting one, I had to find other uses for it besides making smoothies to justify the cost. Like grinding flour. Or making almond and coconut milk.
After we bought it, I was blown away at how useful and powerful it is. It spins so fast it heats up soup. And hot chocolate. It’s also powerful enough to make ice-cream-like desserts. And blend soups so smoothly you don’t even need to strain them!
Don’t even get me started on how awesome it is at making silky-smooth baby food. The only way you could tell the purees are homemade is because of their bright color!
I must say, there is absolutely no buyer’s remorse in this house. Blendtec blenders are worth every penny.
And because I’ve had such a blast these five years, I’m thrilled to be able to giveaway one of these lovelies in your choice of black, red, or white! I so wish I could give one to each of you. But I’m not Oprah.
HOW TO ENTER:
Just leave a comment on this post and answer this question for me:
What kind of posts would you like to see more of on Perry’s Plate?
More healthy recipes? Meal plans? (Sorry I dropped the ball on that last year.) In-depth series like Staying Whole and CSA Wednesday? Photos of my baby invading my photo shoots?
The rules:
1. Comments will close on Monday, February 25, 2013 at 8PM PST. I’ll use a random number generator to choose one winner that I will contact and announce here shortly after. If I don’t get a response from the winner after three days I’ll pick a new one.

Giveaway blender provided by Blendtec. (Thank you!) The blender given away is a factory reconditioned Total blender with a brand-new FourSide jar. The same, 7-year warranty applies to this blender.

Wow, 5 years! Impressive, my friend. I loved the baby invading the photo shoot, but I also love the CSA posts. We joined a meat CSA for the winter, all grass-fed, and I am loving it!
I love your how-to posts about making the basics!
I would like to see more of the “healthy” recipes – veggies as the main dish.
More healthy posts on what you’re doing with your CSA. You can never get enough of that kind of inspiration.
I would like to see more healthy side dish recipes
I’m all about the food! But I’m trying to make it more whole and natural- so all recipes that encourage this, I’m all about! Thank you!
Happy 5th Anniversary!!! I would love more healthy recipes and anything CSA related!! It’s nice to know other people who eat clean!! Keep it up!

HUGE congrats! That’s a major accomplishment. I love family dinner ideas. I’m always at a loss for new ideas…even blogging new stuff all of the time, I still get in a rut! But honestly, I’ll just be thrilled to keep seeing what you come up with. :)
I am among those voting for the CSA recipes. What about all those Asian vegetables? More turnips?

I would love to see more Staying Whole posts! Congrats on 5 years!
Five years means success in any venue so congratulations. I find you very refreshing. I do wish that if you go for healthy dishes from time to time, that you would explain to folks that you don’t just take all the “good stuff” out of a recipe, you merely ‘lighten’ the recipe. So many people give up on healthy eating for this reason. Your recipes on the other hand are still tasty when they are considered healthy! Thanks for five great years!
I would personally love to see some Crockpot freezer meal ideas! I’m single and have crazy-weird work hours, so any help with having a tasty, healthy meal to come home to would be appreciated! ;)
Just subscribed to Blendtec newsletter
I already subscribe to Blendtec’s newsletter! (This is definitely not my first time trying to win one of those babies! No such luck yet, but I have my fingers crossed!)
Veggie-centric main dishes (bonus if it’s quick)–you simply can’t have too many of those in your repertoire.
I love the meal plans and it would be awesome if you could baby step meal plan me to being all paleo. Baby steps. One week at a time, make me not even realize that im saying goodbye to bread and pasta. yes, do that! Everything I have ever made from your blog is amazing. In fact I kind of abandoned ship on my own recipe blog because I just love your recipes so much, no need to search elsewhere.
I also just subscribed to the Blendtec newsletter.
How about some “Almost Plaeo” or something as close to”natural” as possible! Thanx
I’d love to see more yummy and healthy recipes :)
I like your blog as is – a great variety!
I am all ready subscribed to Blendtec newsletter.
Congratulations! Great blog! I would love to see more healthy recipes.
Bacon…i want to see more bacon in your recipes! ;) Congrats and Happy Birthday Perry’s Plate!!!!
I really liked the series you’ve done, also homemade ingredient posts. Love them!
Happy Blogiverrrrsary! Just keep dern what you’re dern!
I would love to see Clean Eating recipes!
Five years, go Nat!! I love the Staying Whole series you did, and refer my classes to it frequently. It’s funny, but it seems like every week they hunger for “diet” tips that are basically variations on “Don’t eat crap, and you’ll feel better!”
Also subbed to the Blendtec newsletter … I really want that blender!
i also signed up for the Blendtec weekly newsletter.
I would like to see ideas to make ahead for freezer to oven to table recipes. The healthier variety the better! Thanks for the great give away and Happy Birthday!

Happy blogiversary! So happy for you! I’d love to see more healthy lunch for moms and kids that are healthy, without being too complicated for moms on the go.
I would love to see recipes how I can get whole grains and vegetables disguised into meals for my family. I eat healthy, but I have trouble getting me kids to follow suit. Thanks Nat!
Congratulations on five long years, Miss Natalie! Some of my favorite recipes are from you (both preblog and blog) and I can’t help but brag about your awesomeness!

whoo hoo, happy blogiversary to you! I love your posts as is – I’m all about the healthy recipes :)
healthy vegetarian recipes & ones that are easy to freeze. Love CSA info and especially loved your eating whole in a processed world series–I (unofficially) recommend it to my personal training clients as a good nutrition source! Thanks!
Happy Happy Anniversary! Here’s to many more!
LOVE the invading baby photos…LOVE it all!!
Happy Blogiversary! I’d like to see more seasonal/csa posts!
Congratulations, Nat!! It’s been a pleasure I would like to see your blog grow through the years. I would like to see more paleo recipes, if possible.
I would love to win! I would like to see more gluten-free recipes as well as dairy-free recipes. thanks Natalie!
Wow– 5 years! Congratulations, that is very impressive. It’s a ton of work to have/maintain a food blog. You do it SO well! I love seeing healthy recipes on your blog.

Congrats Natalie! Your blog is so awesome… Keep up the good work! I would love a step by step of going organic/natural or paleo. I am having the hardest time making the leap!

Congratulations “how about. A few vegan recipes
I registered for the newsletter.
OMG! A Blendtec Blender Giveaway that’s open to Canadian residents! And from one of my favorite bloggers too! I am so joyfully entering that one! Wow. Just being able to enter makes me so happy!
And Natalie, I so hear you on the KitchenAid mixer collecting dust… mine is the same. I used to use it ALL the time, but I now use my food processor and blender a whole lot more. I purchased all three in cobalt blue many years ago and they still serve me flawlessly after all this time. I never thought I would see the day where my food processor would win over my standing mixer in terms of “ice time” though… Poor little mixer doesn’t get to play much anymore. Now at least, if I was to get my hands on a Blendtec, I get the feeling that my blender would be keeping it company, so it wouldn’t feel so lonely! ;)
I don’t think there’s anything I could say I’d like to see more of on your blog. I do, however, appreciate your “behind the scene / invading baby” posts and I thoroughly enjoyed your staying whole series.
Oh, and lastly… HUGE CONGRATS ON 5 YEARS! HIGH FIVE! And please, keep it up… your blog is totally awesome!
OK, I’m done now, promise! ;)
I love your “clean” recipes and what do I do with _____ cut of beef.
More healthy :). I love getting healthy ideas from you.
And just because Blendtec made you break your one entry rule… I subscribed to their list as well! ;)
I am a follower of blendtec :)
I would like to see more healthy recipes. I feel like I’ve been on sugar overload recently and I love new, creative ways to use vegetables. Happy Birthday!
I’m already a subscriber to the BlendTec email list, so I hope that counts for a second entry!
So proud of you!! I would love more healthy substitute recipes. Loved your cauliflower pizza dough recipe. I need more tricks to getting Jason to eat healthy versions of his favorite meals ;) But to be completely honest I wouldn’t be mad if there were more pics of Ivy and the girls..and bacon. I would like more bacon. (please don’t substitute that)
I’d like to see more info. on real-life examples of whole, clean eating. Thanks!
I’ve signed up for BlendTec’s newsletter
I read for the recipes – but no one can resist a baby photo bomb!
I subscribed to the newsletter.
Signed up for the Blendtec recipes AND would to continue seeing more recipes on how to make kitchen basics that people don’t realize are simple and better for you than their processed counterparts.
congrats, Natalie! you are awesome :) I want more healthy recipes, as always! and a new blendtec wouldn’t hurt either!
Thanks for the chance! I would like to see more meal plans . I’ve enjoyed your blog and recipes.
Woohoo! Go blog go!
Would love even more simple delicious whole food recipes that are easy for families with small kids to whip together.
I have signed up for the Blendtec newsletter :)
I love when the recipes are perfect for small helping hands, so more of those, please! (With kiddo pics, too, of course!)

I would love to see more healthy treat recipes. I tried the cookie dough bites this weekend and LOVED them! I may or may not have accidentally rolled them in some dark chocolate too. ;P
Weeknight dinners.
I would love to see more breakfast recipes! Maybe more breakfast things on the savory side? Thanks!
I love the recipes, some simple lunch ones would be great.
I would like to see more salad recipes on Perry’s Plate!

I would love to see more meal plans. Especially those that are budget friendly.
Natalie, you are amazing. I love your blog. Well, you do a great job anyway but I guess my request is for healthifying kids good especially school snacks. I am trying to get away from the packaged foods but sometimes I get stuck!
I would love to win one of these. I don’t have one, but Stephanie says I should. I would like more recipes with veggies. We are trying to get more healthy and eat more veggies and less meat. I love your website and check it almost daily. Your little girls are growing up so fast. I can’t believe how fast time is going. Thanks for your recipes. We have tried many and have added them to our favorites.
Light, healthy lunch recipes would be great. It’s something I struggle with and sandwiches tend to get boring after a while!
Happy Anniversary! I particularly like the grain free, sugar free savory recipes and would like more meal plans too.
I have subscribed to the BlendTec website!!!
Congratulations on 5 years! Love to see the healthy recipes. Currently we are doing meatless Mondays and I’m thinking of extending it to two days a week. Some main vegetarian dishes would help me out. Thanks for the giveaway.
I love seeing the pictures of your kids involved in the cooking process! I would also like to see a “Goes Well With…” after a recipe. What I mean by that is if the recipe is a side dish, say rice or a vegetable, then a section that says what main course it would compliment. Hope that made sense. :)
Congrats! I have really enjoyed your stuff for years…but would especially like the meal plans…and possibly ways to make old time favorites in a healthier way :)
I already receive emails from BlendTec :)
Love the quick dinner recipes!

Meal plans and ways to get kids to eat vegetables. Other than that, keep doing what you’re doing! Love all your recipes!
Congrats! So proud of you. I like most of what you do already. I think just keep it up doing somewhat simple fast meals. Lunches are the hardest for me.
Congrats! I would love to see more vegetarian or vegan main dishes!
You’ve been doing so great already. Maybe more meal plans? It’s always hard trying to figure out what to make for dinner
I would like to see more meal plans.
More Paleo recipes! I love them.
would love to some healthy remakes.
I would love to see more snack, appetizer, party recipes that are still healthy

I already love what you’re doing. But, it would kick it up a knotch if you’d do dietary restricted recipes, like ones that are dairy free, or ones that are gluten free.
I’d love to win a blendtech because my 14 month old son was just diagnosed with eosinophilic esophagitus…and I have to blend ALL of his meals. I have a crappy blender, and it’s about to bite the dust.
Thanks for all you do!
I would like to see more soups, and maybe more vegetarian recipes.
I love everything so far. Now that the kids are getting older, they love to have picnics at the park so some packed lunch ideas would be great. My go to right now is a make ahead oatmeal green smoothie that I put in water bottles with some fruit or baby carrots on the side. But we usually get weird looks from the other moms at the park.
More advice for beginner bloggers.
I subscribe to the blendtec email letters.
More vegetarian meals! Thanks!!
More out of necessity than choice, my family is eating gluten free and dairy free and your paleo recipes have been lifesavers. I would love to see more of those recipes. Love you blog!
Five years, how exciting–congratulations! I would love to see more healthy, vegetarian recipes (vegetarian just because it’s usually cheaper than buying really high quality meat)…although there are still several on your site I still need to try out! I also loved your Staying Whole series, so if you have more to say on that, I’d be all ears! Thanks for your blog, I’ve loved it.

I would love to see more staying whole posts! I am looking into eating more whole foods! Congratulations on five years!

I would love more yummy, impressive recipes…but really so excited to see what else you have already got on your site!
Thanks for the chance to win!
Congratulations on your fabulous blog! My favorites are the in-depth series like Staying Whole. I’d like something that gives more detail about food preparation basics or techniques like knife skills, adding fancy touches to vegies (Julienne), shortcuts, etc. Of course, baby photos are always welcome! Thank you for this giveaway opportunity.
One pot meals!
I’d like to see more recipes that help a family in the transition period to whole foods (aka- things hesitant husbands and kids will eat).
I’d like to see more healthy recipes that are kid friendly, especially for those kids who arent used to eating whole, natural foods.
More vegetarian recipes, please. You have some fabulous recipes on your blog! Thanks for the giveaway!
Healthy, simple recipes are always useful! I’m new to Perry’s Plate so this may already exist but I’d love info on how you meal plan from what you receive from your CSA. I love meal planning and I loved our CSA produce when we were getting it but for some reason I had a really hard time putting the two together easily and efficiently.
I would love more healthy recipes focusing on breakfast and lunch. I also loved the CSA posts!
Meatless Monday meals! My family eats meatless several times a week and I’m always looking for new ideas!

More healthy recipes please, especially main dishes :) Thanks!
I’ve been a silent reader on Perry’s Plate for quite some time, and I love it :) congrats on five years!! Your blog is fantastic. As for me, I’d love to see recipes/tips for pantry organization that might be more friendly for beginning cooks – I’m a grad student living in my first apartment with a kitchen, but I hardly know what to do with it or how to even think about starting a pantry!
Keep up the fantastic work ^^
I love all of your gluten/grain free recipes! I recently made your raw cookie dough bites and they were SUPER YUM!
I just subscribed to the BlendTec newsletter too! :)
I think I enjoy your recipes so much, so I’m tempted to say “more recipes!” But I also love bits and bobs about meal planning, the day-to-day of healthy living with small children, etc. It is kind of voyeuristic, but I love seeing typical “day in life of our family’s eating” type posts!
I love all your categories, but, would love to see even more healthy main course recipes. I especially enjoy crock pot options. Happy Anniversary!
I have recently gone dairy, soy, and gluten free for my family. I am also attempting to cut all processed foods. Would love to see recipes that fit in these categories! I am going to try your tortilla, coconut milk, and taco seasoning recipes this week! Great giveaway! You have me dreaming!
More CSA Wednesdays!
ps my blender is trash and I would love love love to win! Fingers crossed!
I love all your healthy recipes – and this BlendTec looks amazing!
Clean eating recipes would keep me coming back, keep up the good work :)

So many congrats on a 5th year of delectable recipes Natalie!! I loved your series on whole foods last summer – keep enlightening us all with great knowledge and healthy recipes :)
I love posts with : 1. Fat babies; 2. healthy food that I is either simple to prepare or, if more complicated, can do double-duty (like stick the leftovers in the freezer). I have kiddo #3 on the way, and while it’s really important for me that our family eats healthy food, I can’t spend hours on meal prep everyday (some days, yes, but not everyday!)
Congrats on your birthday. I have really enjoyed your blog!
I really enjoyed the “staying whole” series. Would love to see more posts like that. Healthy recipes are always good too, especially anything kid-friendly!
I wish that I had followed your blog sooner! My family and I are starting to work on eating better foods. Something that has needed to happen for quite a long time. I would like to see meal plans on the blog. I can cook, I just don’t like to spend a lot of time in the kitchen. Simple meal plans would be wonderful! Thank you so much for everything you share with us, including your adorable little ones! :D
Congratulations on 5 years!!!
I just subscribed to Blendtec’s weekly newsletter! :)
I would love to see more CSA posts. :)
I’ve subscribed to Blendtec’s newsletter. :)
I agree with you…healthy meals and meal planning would be a great start.
I would love to see some healthy dessert recipes!
I would love to see some more healthy (whole/clean eating) recipes! I’m trying really hard to eat better, and find joy in the kitchen, and I’d love some inspiration!!
Congrats to you for keeping such a fun things going for 5 years now! I love your blog and am so grateful I stumbled upon it. I loved reading all of your segments on doing away with processed foods and such. I would love to see more healthy main meals (as well as sides and desserts here and there) showcasing how to use more veggies and good grains as opposed to those yucky cream of ___ soups and processed packets! Also, I love when you showcase how to make your own of something…i.e. butters, flours, ranch packets, etc! :)
i’d love to see more vegan recipes!
subscribed to the newsletter! :)
I would love to see more clean recipes. My family has just started eating clean. Its sort of a challenge.

Way to go Nat! I loved your meal plans. I’d like to see more of those. If you could help me plan my meals to be quick, budget-friendly, and healthy, that would help me immensely. Thanks for all you do.
Your healthy meals are always a winner!
More healthy recipes that are geared towards toddlers!
I would love to see lots of healthy recipes that kids would be into too!

I would like to see more healthy recipes. I love getting ideas from you.
I would love to see more gluten-free recipes – that is how I found your site in the first place!
Just subscribed to the Blendtec newsletter.
I just had a baby so all foods baby related would be great. Also ways to plan meals with a 6 month old would be cool, like ways to easily incorporate making their meals with your normal meals and tips and ideas of how to provide balanced meals for the whole family. So excited about the possibility of owning a blendtec, I worked at smoothie king 10 yrs ago so I know their epic blending power! Also, I signed up for blendtec emails with the same address I’ve provided for you here :)
Just subscribed to the blendtec newsletter :)
love the simple, tasy and healthy family recipes!
just subscribed to the blendtec newsletter…I would LOOOVE to have one! its been on my list since I last saw an awesome smoothie demo at whole foods!
New reader here :) And I check it daily now. I love your clean eating recipes, mostly because they consistently involve ingredients I have on hand, are rather simple, and are incredibly tasty!
I love healthy & simple main dish recipes.
I would love fruit focused desserts!
My current blender is on its last legs and I have been looking for something new!
My husband makes the best smoothies and I think this would take it up a notch!

Happy 5 years!! I’m really liking the healthy stuff as we’re trying to eat better as well!
More Goodies! I love the education value of your blog and always look forward to new references/articles/posts on ‘clean’ eating. Thank you!
Happy Blogiversary! I love what you do here on Perry’s Plate, so I would just love more of the same. I love that you make whole food eating more accessible for the whole family. Our family loves meatless meals and I’m always looking for more inspiration, so more of those would be awesome, but really, just keep doing what you do, and thank you!
Congraulations on 5 years! I’m a huge fan of your site and your roasted sweet potato and chorizo lettuce wraps are one of our top 5 favorite meals of all time. :) I’d love to see more healthy, family-friendly meals that are also quick enough to make on a weeknight!
I would love to see more pics of the baby…she is so cute :-) Recipes are great too!
Love your blog! I would like to see more healthy vegetarian, interesting meals.
Thank you!

Congratulations! As a new mom, I would love more meal-planning help. Having a little one makes it difficult to have and prepare healthy meals throughout the week.
I really like delicious weeknight meals.. I have a hard time figuring out how to cook meat especially, cause I live alone and so I end up eating either eating the same quinoa salad all week or just eating carrots for dinner.. Love your blog!

I remember way back when your blog started. Pretty exciting!! So happy that its been such a success for you. You really are one amazing cook. Many of your recipes have become staples in our home:) Love to be able to call you friend too:) Love ya.
I would love for you to post more healthy and quick recipes. We could always use more ideas in that area.

Congratulations on five delicious years!!
I would love to see more meal plans. I’ve got a nearly-4-month-old at home (I love seeing how your little one is going, btw – it’s kind of like peeking into the future!), and I’m working, so any help making decisions on good, delicious food for weeknight meals is so appreciated.
Here’s to the next five years! Best of luck!
Also – I subscribed.
More meal plans would be AWESOME! :-)
subscribed to blendtec newsletters! :-)
Healthy recipes are always welcome! I’m always looking for healthy recipes that aren’t necessarily veggie-centric. I love veggies, but all vegetable main dishes don’t always fly with my hubby, so I like lightened up recipes. Love your blog, thanks!
Maybe more quick weeknight vegetarian food! Want that Blendtec so very badly!!!
Congratulations on 5 years! I love your blog. I especially like your recipes for main dishes without processed ingredients.
I subscribe to the Blendtec newsletter. Thanks!
Congrats on 5 years! I’d love to see more healthy recipes – every recipe I’ve tried from your blog has been a big hit!
before i even read this new post, i just thought to myself “I wish Natalie would do more meals that could be ‘freezer’ meals”. I have a cookbook that has some, but I would LOVE a Perry’s Plate spin! I love your blog, so glad it’s been 5 years.
I love the recipes. Always looking for more paleo and slow cooker stuff. :)
Subscribed to blendtec. Congrats on 5 years & thanks for the giveaway! <3
Congrats on the milestone! I’d love some veggie/vegan recipes or how to use less-common veggies (like those that might turn up in CSA shares). Thanks!
Healthy quick meals!
Congratulations on your Blog Birthday Anniversary Natalie! I’ve been blogging for about 5 years as well, but am still trying to find my voice! (and let’s not talk about the time I deleted my blog about 2 years ago too) Haha! :) I bet this message will get lost in the sea of fishes because you’ve got so many amazing followers here…
I would love to see more recipes that you can make with the food processor and or this fancy blender you have. Soups, drinks, deserts, salsas, purees (sauces?) etc.
And I would love to get more ideas for freezer meals. Either meals that can be put in glass dishes with lids (freezer to oven meals) or freezer zip lock bag meals that can be put into a crock pot or dutch oven, or…. :)
Congratulations on making your blog such a success my friend. I know I don’t post often, but I lurk often, and Pin too! xo! ♥
I have a Kitchen-Aid but I do NOT have a Blendtec. So your giveaway is better.
I’d love more main dish recipes that use CSA items.
I would love to see posts on healthy freezer meals or meal plans. Our household is both gluten and dairy free, so finding tasty food that EVERYONE likes can be a bit of a challenge :-) Congrats on your blogiversary.

I would love to see more paleo recipes!

My all time favorite recipe of yours is the Cabbage Slaw! It is so versatile and delicious on so many things. Healthy eating is so much more enjoyable because of people like you who are willing to share, so thank you so much! I would love to see simple dinner (or any meal) ideas. I love your blog!
Congrats on your blog anniversary! I love your blog and would enjoy seeing healthy, sugar free recipes. I too have set my beloved ruby red Kitchen Aid aside as we are eating healthier and more gluten free. Love my Cusinart for nut butters and chopping. Your Blentec sounds very awesome!

Congrats on your blog birthday! Definitely meal planning, since that’s what I tend to be worst at!
I loved the staying whole series and would like to see more posts like that or small ways to improve/change your diet. I’m really terrible about grains.
I would like to see more healthy leaning post. I like to cook the “bad” stuff from time to time but the internet is FULL of not so healthy recipes. I need more good for you idea to help me find a balance.

Comgrats on 5 years! I’d love to see some of those baby food recipes you mentioned. We’ll be starting that in a few months and I really want to make my own but don’t know where to start.
I would love to see more vegetarian dishes that would tempt my two teenage boys. They are adventurous eaters but feel that most veggie only meals don’t fill them up for a very long time.
I would love to see more posts related to using contents of CSA box, I felt like I wasted way too much food from our CSA last year because I couldn’t think of enough things to do with the same items.
Thanks!
Healthy recipes that the whole family will enjoy.

Maybe helthier desserts (but good ones, not just helthier :D)
hmm…I think something that would be helpful is lunch ideas. Is that stupid? Sometimes I’m just desperate at lunch time! Another thing is that I’m always on the prowl to collect more super healthy recipes (not that yours aren’t healthy because they are…), even with some vegan in there for good options…sometimes the “super healthy” food I see on blogs is like seriously weird rabbit food and I’m just not into that. But seriously, everything I get from your blog is so good and such a hit!

Just found your site (from pinterest) and LOVE it. I’m a busy mom of 3, struggling to make healthy choices – standing at the top of the cliff and ready to jump off and go completely free of any processed foods. Takes time, dedication, planning to cook all clean meals, provide clean food to my family, but the right choice for our health. Happily, our classroom (I’m a room mom) has decided to be healthy. Yes, our valentine’s party was complete with fruit kabobs, bowls of fruit, red berries and real yogurt in parfaits… the kids LOVED it. Not one complaint over the missing sugar fest of cookies and cupcakes.
LOVE everything I’ve seen on your site so far, but since my interest is in my family and children, perhaps more kid-friendly meals/ideas?
THanks!!!

In need of suggestions on recipes and tips for pre-planning meals that can be put on the table quickly when things go crazy. You know, the relatively healthy, yet yummy, ones that are flavorful but not so involved. Or have in the freezer.

You are pretty much awesome, so I’d love to see any new posts:) but meal planning is the harder for me, if I do it we eat a lot healthier, if not it is like starving kids and I’m scrambling to make box Mac and cheese;)
Happy Birthday Perry’s Plate, and thanks for all the tasty meal ideas and laughs along the way! I would love to see more meal plans. I particularly like hearing about the recipes for main ingredients that you can use twice in a week (like chicken as a main dish, and then on a salad or in tacos a couple of days later). I am still learning when it comes to pairing up dishes for a single meal. And I have another request: I once tried to follow a link to a roasted tomato soup and it was broken. I’d love to see what you put in your version!

I would like assistance with weekly shopping for whole foods so I can conserve trips and costs to go along with your great recipes. It’s a tall order but will be beneficial to me and others I hope. Thanks. Please put me on your list to win the cool blender.
besides my suggestions feb 18 for more crock pot recipes, i would like to see more “cook once eat 3 meals” type of recipes, like making several different meals out of a pork roast or whole roasted chicken for example. that would be really cool

Wow, I remember when Perry’s Plate turned two! Congratulations on five years! I don’t comment much but your recipes are now an integral part of my family’s life. Tonight we had sweet potato “tacos”.
For blog posts, I’m curious about grocery shopping & budgeting. Where do you find your ingredients? (I know you mention that occasionally) How much is a reasonable amount for a whole foods diet? Posts on the day-to-day foods your kids eat would also be interesting. One of my kids used to be a fantastic eater but is suddenly turning her nose up at things. The other was born with a sweet tooth (I craved sugar the entire pregnancy!) and vegetables are still a struggle with her. (Fruit, of course, is not).
I subscribed to the newsletter.
Would love some family friendly posts!
I love the how-to posts and would like to see them. I make gallons of homemade vegetable stock thanks to you idea of broth bags full of veggies in the freezer.
I’d love to see healthy meal plans.. I’m happy with anything though really.. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!!
I’d love to see more healthy meal planning. Im trying to lose weight and get healthy so it’d help to see more of that.
