We hit 5,000 Facebook fans yesterday, so it’s time to host a giveaway! One winner of this giveaway will receive a 52-week subscription to both the Menu Mailer and the Recipe Archive. The Menu Mailer can be either the Australian or the United States version.
The Menu Mailer
The Menu Mailer covers five dinners (including side dishes), one breakfast, one soup and one dessert every week. It contains a full menu, shopping list, a preparation plan, and serving suggestions for each meal. Tips and information are included in every mailer as well. Ingredients are seasonal for the United States or Australia, your choice.
What makes the Cooking Traditional Foods menu mailer unique? A preparation schedule is included with every menu mailer. It reminds you when to thaw the meat, prep the crock-pot, or soak the grains. Because lack of planning is a major hurdle in getting healthy meals on the table, this schedule helps you make sure everything is done. It also contains blanks so you can write in your own reminders for breakfast, snacks and lunches.
The Cooking TF Menu Mailer has the option for every meal to be gluten and/or casein free, so those with food allergies or who are new to having to cook for someone with allergies do not have to convert the recipe. It also contains suggestions for gluten and casein free brands on each shopping list to assist those new to allergy cooking.
The Recipe Archive
The Recipe Archive is a compilation of all of the recipes that have been posted to Cooking Traditional Foods website and old blog. All recipes are labeled for gluten and casein content, so allergic users can see at a glance which recipes might work for them. There are currently over 500 recipes archived in this collection.

This contest will end Monday, January 23rd at 11:59 PM EST. The winner will be chosen via random.org and will be announced on Wednesday, January 25th on the blog and will have 48 hours to contact me via e-mail. No purchase necessary to win.
REMEMBER: You must comment for each entry.
Have a question? Post it below and I’ll answer it as quickly as I can.

I have followed you on Facebook for sometime but- after reading your history and realizing that many of the health issues you’ve battled parallel mine, I have opted to go gluten free and have been working to transform my kitchen to a more of a Traditional kitchen where at least my dinners are prepared Traditionally 🙂 I’m a work in progress, but your blog and FB posts are helping me on my journey!

I have been doing traditional foods for 5 years but have never been “good”. In other words to much compromise, I would love to win the Menu Mailer to help me get better.

Would love to win because my husband does most of the cooking since the baby arrived & he is bored of the GF, CF dishes he makes me. I think they’re delicious, especially the meats but he prefers some variety and feels limited by my limits.
I subscribe to all the above. Been doing TF almost 2 years. Started during chemo…when I realized I was literally being poisioned.
We’ve just started with traditional foods and this would be a huge help. Thank you!

I’d love to have one less thing to do in the week and this would be a tremendous help in that aspect. We’ve been baby stepping trad foods for about 2 years maybe . I don’t know what my fav is, I’ll have to give that some thought.

We’ve been eating healthier for about 6 or 7 years now and I’m always learning more! One of our favorite foods here is sweet potatoes….yum! My 12 year old son makes an incredible twice-baked sweet potato recipe…..how fortunate we are!
We’ve been transitioning into TF for about 6 months. Husband is on the GAPS intro as of this week!

Tell me why you wish to win, how long you’ve been doing traditional foods or about your favorite traditional foods meal/dish/recipe.
Really, I wish everyone could win! I think what you are doing is fantastic! What a wonderful service to women! I’ve been doing REAL foods since i got pregnant with my first baby. Figured he deserved the best! Ooooo a favorite? I just love food as long as it grows from the ground or is living in some way. Under the ocean, in the sky, out of the ground. Yum!

Because I love your recipes! For the ones we have tried, I have about a 80% ‘this is great’, 15% ‘good but don’t make it a regular’, and 5% ‘total flop’ that I know I did something wrong…so I’m going to try them again. We’ve been eating better for about 4 years and with your Back to Basics book my menu planning is way easier (I plan based on what we have vs. following your plan because we have a big amount stored.) Thanks so much for your help!
I have been following a traditional foods diet for a few months now. Our favorite recipe has been a chicken tikka masala that is incredible!
I’d like to win b/c I’m always looking for new recipes to try. I love trying out different things and it’s a pain to sift through all the processed food recipes. We started transitioning to traditional foods about 2 yrs ago, I think.

One of my favorite TF recipes is what I had for lunch today… cornbread made with masa harina and bacon grease, refried pinto beans with coconut oil and spices, shredded cheese and diced onions. Yummy.

I’d like to win the giveaway because my daughter is sick with food allergies and my son shows signs of having food sensitivities as well. I’ve never really cooked with traditional foods before but I know our diet needs to change quickly but I have no idea where to start!
I would like to win a free year’s subscription because I’m just starting out in the traditional foods arena. I’m overwhelmed with where to begin and keep going in circles. I think I need to start little and gradually build on that. Thanks for the chance to win this. It would be a great help!

I started cooking traditional foods when i found your website this past september. I was researching diets for my children who have learning differences and autism. I really want to win a year long subscription because I can not wait to see your menus in the spring and summer! This winter has been so enjoyable in the kitchen and at the table! My favorite recipe so far is the Crock-Pot Italian Chicken. When I was putting ingredients in I thought surely it would be horrible, 3/4 cup of oil! I re-read it twice! Well was I surprised, It is divine! My husband and I love that simple yet delicious stew!

I been cooking traditional foods forever. Its the foods i was raised on. Now that I have become more health conscience, I’m unlearning the bad way to cook them,a find trying to find a better way. In our family a traditional meal would be collard greens. I no longer use the fat back to season them, I use veggie broth and morning star bacon. One of our holiday favorites now.
So i just stumbled on to your blog from another blog. I subscribed via email. I thought great just what I need to help me on my journey to better health.
I need help with meal planning… desperately…

I just started TF cooking a month ago. So far all the cooking my family has been disgusted with EXCEPT as a recent Menu Mailer subscriber they are all RAVING about your recipes. So far they are devouring the food I made with your recipes. My hubby is the biggest critic, as well as a 5 year old and picky GAPS 2 year old. Thank you for your service, I love it!

We’ve been eating traditional foods for about 5 years. We began out of necessity when we lived in a foreign country and and didn’t have many processed food readily available. At that point I had to ask someone how to make pancakes from scratch- how embarrassing! I”d love the menu mailer because now that we are back in the states, we are still largely traditional food eaters, but I get lazy sometimes or we get stuck in a rut with our menu.

I have been trying to follow a traditional food diet for about 6 years. I have skin issues which I am thinking is gluten related as it gets better when I go low carb. I try to go gluten free but last year I had to go back to work and have gotten way off track. I need more gluten free options which is what led me to your site to begin with, just can’t afford it at this time. Would love to win the menu mailer and access to recipe archive so I can get my skin issues cleared up.

I recently subscribed to Traditional Foods, I was recommended to try this website by Lydia Shatney. I do not have a favorite recipe yet, but with 7 kids Im sure Ill find a few. I would love to win because…..well I need this, 7 kids has me pulled in all different directions, and I lack support and knowledge. I mean I know I shouldnt eat bad foods, but I do it anyway because no time, no money and not enough care I guess. Helping me with this would hopefully prepare myself for better lifestyle and more time for my kids.
