Join the discussionOh my goodness, I cannot even begin to tell you how excited I am to see this!! I was literally just looking up paleo freezer meals to try and do the Whole 30 challenge and was becoming frustrated with the whole thing! Thanks so much! I wasn’t a member, but after this post I will be now =)
Glad to hear we could help Crystal! Let us know how your journey goes. 🙂
Just wondering, how much time should I allot for the cooking day for the whole30 menu? New to the monthly cooking plan, and am so excited to try it out!
Hi Tiffany, are you trying to do the whole 50 recipes? Or one of the menus inside of it? A normal menu has 15 recipes and will take you between 8=12 hours. A mini menu has 5 recipes can get done in just a few hours- maybe 2-3 hours. Good luck and let us know how it goes!
I am into day 12 of the Whole30 and a friend put me onto this site and I have to say I love it!! I love to do a big cook up at least one day a week or fortnight and then have lots of freezer filler choices and your recipes are just fantastic.
Welcome Welcome Jackie! Day 12 – Rock on! Having food prepped and ready to go is truly the key to “surviving” a Whole 30! Keep us updated on your progress!
Are all the recipes and menus in the Whole Foods menu inline with the Whole 30 guidelines?
Hi Alanna! No, the Whole Foods menu isn’t Whole30 compliant. There may be a few recipes but the Paleo menu is going to be closer to Whole30 compliant. We actually have a few Paleo menus that are fully Whole30 compliant- https://onceamonthmeals.com/pal… and https://onceamonthmeals.com/pal…. Hope that helps!
Unfortunately, they are dead links…
Hi Mindy! Yes, those are links from 2014 and things have changed a bit 🙂 Here are some Whole 30 Paleo menus if you are looking for some: https://onceamonthmeals.com/?s=whole30&post_type%5B%5D=menu
You mentioned tips for a W30…avoid temptation by keeping W30 compliant snacks in your purse (and your car, and your desk, etc)…you find after a week or two that you’re not really hungry between meals, so you might not think about it. When someone puts a dozen Krispy Kreme donuts on the table, you’ll wish you had an apple in your purse!
Great tip Tara, thanks!
so if I were to want to do these all in one weekend how would i go about doing that? would I just have to click on each recipe and write down what I needed… or is there an easier way, like the other menus have?
You can go to any menu and swap these recipes into that menu. However, I should warn you that we recommend 15 recipes in a full cooking day (8-12 hours) so 50 in a weekend could be really overwhelming! Let us know how your Whole30 goes!
I too want to know if there is an easier way to do this also? I found you through stuffimakemyhusband.com and she gives a food list, but not sure exactly how many meals it really gives. I want to have my whole30 days all planned out before beginning to make it more successful. Any tips? I have done Whole30 before, but it was exhausting to say the least. I have NEVER done freezer cooking, so I am a little confused on exactly how much food it will make and what I need to buy. Thanks!
Welcome! You would want to swap some of these recipes into any menu- you can find them here- https://onceamonthmeals.com/men…. Our system will give you grocery lists, etc so you won’t need to figure out how much to buy. You can get started here- https://onceamonthmeals.com/mem…. Feel free to email us with more questions at info at onceamonthmeals.com and we can walk you through it!
I would be very grateful if you would do a similar roundup of 50 AIP freezable meals. Starting AIP in a week and will be kick-starting with some delivered food that freezes well (Pete’s Pale), but woud much rather make ahead and freeze myself Thanks!
Kristina – We are hoping to add more AIP friendly meals in the near future. I am also doing the AIP Paleo Protocol as well. Here is one of my favorite recipes that I eat for breakfast most mornings. https://onceamonthmeals.com/swe…
I am planning on starting the whole30 soon. I am not a fan of sweet potatoes. Wondering if there is a good substitute? Something perhaps a little less sweet tasting. Thank you
Becky – Good luck on W30! You could certainly just omit the sweet potatoes, or use parsnips instead.
I think I love you.
I needed this so bad! Just started whole 30 and not quite prepared and a little overwhelmed and bam you are there saving my ass! Going home to prep (after work) THANKYOU!!!!!
A substitute for chili or green chili peppers? I can’t have these or paprika, bell peppers, or tomatoes. Are there substitutes or can I leave them out? I think I might need more of an auto immune protocol? Thank you for everyone’s hard work because I could never put this together as my brain has a hard time with this sort of thing.
Cyndi – I also eat AIP and quite honestly in most recipes I simply omit the ingredients that aren’t compliant.
Thank you I love your site and have been wanting to do whole30. This is amazing!!! Thank you for your hard amazing work!!!!
You are so welcome Whitney! We wish you well on your W30 journey!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this! I need to be able to prep as many meals as possible ahead of time and freeze them because I just do NOT have any time to cook during the week for my family. This entire post is going to get me through my year, and get me through my first Whole 30. Bless you!
Glad to hear it, Christina! Happy New Year!
The chicken and avocado lettuce wraps recipe looks great. Do you have any suggestions for what to substitute for the yogurt to make it Whole30 compliant?
Coconut milk or coconut yogurt
Hi there. We would love to look into this further for you. Can you share which recipe you are referring to?
This looks amazing! It’s definitely going on the menu for this week because we found dried figs with nothing added at the dollar store 🙂 I also grabbed Mediterranean Paleo Cooking for my Kindle, and I can’t wait to start cooking up some of the recipes for my fiancee, whose mom is Lebanese. Thanks for posting this!http://thepaleohack.blogspot.c…
That sounds great! Let us know what she thinks!
I was wondering if you have a list of other materials needed to complete these meals? Like containers or special items to create the dishes on the menu.
Here are a couple blog posts you might enjoy:
Basic Equipment: https://onceamonthmeals.com/blog/series/get-started/get-started-basic-equipment-to-have-on-hand-for-once-a-month-cooking/
Extra Equipment: https://onceamonthmeals.com/blog/series/get-started/get-started-extra-equipment-for-once-a-month-cooking/
Freezing Containers: https://onceamonthmeals.com/blog/series/get-started/get-started-freezing-containers/
I am picky so I think this will be really difficult for me. I’ll probably have to switch ingredients – like bacon for sausage.
That’s a great idea!
WHats the best container to use for freezing these dishes??
Here is a great resource for what containers to freeze in: https://onceamonthmeals.com/blog/series/kitchen-tips/works-for-me-wednesday-freezing-containers/
