May 2013 Q Specials

So far all of you out there enjoying the 75 or 80 degree weather, I just wanted to say Happy May Day!

It just started in the early hours of the morning and just keeps coming down.  I had to pick up my son from preschool and had completely forgotten that I needed to save some time to wipe off all of this snow so I could actually see where I am driving.  There were several inches.  I'd estimate 4 maybe.  You would think that this wouldn't be a surprise to me at this point, but after living in Las Cruces, NM for most of my life and having snow happen MAYBE once a year and even then it typically falls from the sky but melts once it reaches the ground, this weather coming in May is still a SHOCKER.

Now its all clear why Meilea did the grow your own potato bucket article and not me, huh?  I am dying to start having a window garden too.  They say the rule of thumb in Denver is not to plant before Mother's Day weekend so maybe this will be the last snow... or maybe once more since there are still almost 2 weeks left til that time.  Anywho, I am pretty sure this sporadic craziness is almost over. :)

So the wait is over for those of you wondering what deals you get to score for April.  It would appear that Chef Todd was getting ready for Cinco de Mayo as there are a few ingredients for South of the Border recipes.  Remember that you can still take advantage of April Sales and winter price lists until 5 pm today, but after that, we will be switching to these new sales and price lists.  That means you have a couple more hours to stock up on pineapples before you can stock up on blueberries.

Here you go!

Don't forget to edit your Q so you can shop the sales and earn points on all of your purchases!  Mine is shipping out in a couple of days so I am getting mine done today.  If you haven't heard of the Q, you can check out the monthly sales and delivery service here or see my blog post on the difference between the old Q and the new Q here.

Since the Nonfat Powdered Milk is on sale, you can look forward to a post on the uses of powdered milk next week, as well as a huge variety of recipes coming throughout the month.  I will be writing another post later this week with my goals for the month.  I would love some suggestions.  Thanks for stopping by!

April 2013 THRIVE Q Sales

Welcome Back!

New name means big changes!
It has been so hard getting used to the new name.  I know for most of you, it probably seems like... "what's the big deal.  Your food was already called THRIVE so 'THRIVE Life' isn't a huge switch."  And you're right, it shouldn't be so surprising for us, but, for many of us that have been with the company from the beginning its kind of a shocker.  As you have probably already guessed we will be needing to change our blog name as the name Shelf Reliance is no longer.

We are hoping to launch our new site as well as many of our new ideas in May or June so look forward to this amazing change.  I am starting to get excited about all that we will be able to do with this new opportunity.  We have a professional web designer from Eedee Designs working hard to make it the most user friendly, easily navigable and fresh looking site.  I hope that you will enjoy the switch!

April Showers bring lots of great sales!
Now for the Q Sales for April.  I am seriously so excited about all of the products that I had to add them all to my Q today before it ships out tomorrow.  I can't wait to start cooking up some Q recipes for next Wednesday's Post.  Then of course we'll have Chef Todd's Thrive it Up next Tuesday so you're head will be spinning with all of the potatoey goodness.  I'm sure that these spuds will be showing up soon in our weekly series that is debuting next week - Thirty Days of Thrive.  (more details below)

April Q-Pon
If you belong to the Q Club, you'll be especially glad to hear about the April Q-Pon!   It is our #1 Best Seller, Freeze Dried Pineapple.  Look out for the awesome Pineapple Upside Down Cake Recipe in your email box.

Thirty Days of THRIVE
I have so many people ask me how to use THRIVE on a regular basis.  I will tell you that the more you use it, the less of a switch it feels.  You will begin to wonder how you ever cooked without it because it is so convenient.

In order to help you get on your way, we have been doing multiple things...

Brianna has signed on to show you how she is just getting started with the products. Most of her recipes are things that only require a few ingredient switches. This is wonderful for those beginners who think, I don't have a full pantry of THRIVE, where do I start?

Meilea has signed on to show you just how easy it is to incorporate THRIVE into your daily life especially during pregnancy, nursing and babyhood.

But, our final step is for those of you who are ready to pull out "the big guns" so to speak.  If you are a Q member and have been developing a stock pile aka loaded pantry and want to know either how to use it now or how to have a bunch of recipes to use once time gets tough, we will be doing a series where every Tuesday you can count on a family tested recipe that incorporates 100% THRIVE products except for maybe a few spices or little things you are bound to have on hand.  We hope to release an e-book with these and many more recipes by the end of the year just in time for you to give as gifts for your loved ones who may be struggling with starting with Freeze Dried products.

Please join us along the way and feel free to make suggestions of regular dishes that you would love to see turned into THRIVING meals.  If its possible, we'll do it.  We LOVE to cook!  You can email me at Tiffany@HelpingFamiliesThrive.com.  I love hearing from you :)

Thanks for stopping by!

Question of the Day:
What products are you going to add to your Q this month? I'm excited to experiment with the spelt!

Is Your Sweet Tooth Calling?

As you probably already know, Shelf Reliance hired on an exclusive chef, Chef Todd, who is an AMAZING cook.  He gets paid to mess around with Shelf Reliance food and behind-the-scene product all day.  How cool is that?

Well, if you haven't already noticed, the sales this month are over all things delicious.

I guess that's every month.

Hm.... it's on all things mouth watering and tempting... but you know you have to eat your veggies first or you have to go to bed early.  (Do you remember that one as a kid?  Do you use it on your kids? Yeh, me too :)

To get any of these awesome recipes simply click on the picture to be take there.

Ok, so it's all about desserts.  As if the brownie mix couldn't get any better, he turned it into this:

Easy Brownie Parfait

And thanks to our new Egg White Powder, he created this Heavenly dessert:

Yes, that pun was intended, thank you for the pity smile.

Angel Food Cake

Too fluffy for you?  Try the ultra filling Palmer Oatmeal Cake:

Palmer Oatmeal Cake

Chocolate you say? Need more chocolate?  How about 4 types of chocolate?

Quad Chocolate Chip Cookies

And finally, what's dessert without a little cheesecake, also made possible thanks to our Egg Powder.  I'm telling you, it's a must have!

Strawberry Cheesecake

There you have it folks.  Chef Todd must've been told he was losing too much weight from how healthy our food was.  He has to keep up with appearances and all.  Hope you click on at least one of these recipes and love it.  Though I love chocolate, the Cheesecake is just screaming out to me.  If I hadn't just packed up all of my food for moving this week, I would be making this RIGHT NOW!
