***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***
If you’re a busy mom like me – wait, let me start over. If you’re like me and hate grocery shopping, then this week’s giveaway is totally up your aisle. I’ve learned to enjoy cooking, but the chore of making a list, bleeding money at the grocery store and then coming home to find you’ve forgotten the cardamom still drives us to take-out more than we’d like. So imagine my delight when You’ve Got Supper entered our lives.
YGS was started by two busy moms right here in Richmond (holla) and basically does your weekly recipe planning AND grocery list making for you (double holla). Just sign up for their free weekly email for five easy recipe suggestions. Pick the ones you want to make (or add others from their archive) and YGS automatically generates a complete, printable shopping list for you. Basically, my lifesaver. And this week they’re giving away $100 in groceries to one of our lucky readers who just might need some lifesaving in the kitchen too.
We’ve been using them for a while now, and just last week we made three of their meals that we never tried before: Honey Chicken Kebabs, One-Pot Pork Tenderloin and Crispy Potatoes and Creamy Dreamy Mac and Cheese. Here’s that mac and cheese making Burger wish he were human:
And now for this week’s giveaway deets:
- PRIZE: $100 gift card to the grocery store of your choice courtesy of You’ve Got Supper
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I WANT SUPPER” and…

I want supper! We love the the breakfast dinner, it’s fun with the kids. Making pancakes in different shapes keeps everyone happy!
Katie Kemple says
I WANT SUPPER! I DO love me some breakfast for dinner. Lately though, I’ve been making extra of whatever my husband and I have for dinner and having it for lunch at work the next day. Yummy and saves a lot of $$ (even salads in NYC are like $10!)
Alicia Baer says

Kristy says
I WANT SUPPER!
I try to use seasonal produce. Nature’s way of changing it up!

As for mixing things up for dinner — I usually end up throwing together whatever we have on hand (can you tell that You’ve Got Supper is right up my alley?). It works out 99.9% of the time, but that other .1%? Takeout.
Christina says
I WANT SUPPER!
I love food, and it always tastes better when someones else makes it…which is why I love to have friends over and try out new dishes on them (I know, not the safest idea). Since we have 5 kiddos and rarely get invited to dinner (hello…7 extra people to feed!) I try to invite other larger families for these special meals.
Courtney G says
I WANT SUPPER!
My go-to fave is crock pot chicken. There’s nothing like putting it on in the morning and coming home to a home cooked meal with minimal effort!
Sondra says
I WANT SUPPER
We use the crockpot A LOT! We also have organic produce delivered to our door every other week and have to get creative so nothing goes to waste:)
Mallory says
I want supper – and I can always go-to pizza (if I have a pre-made crust sitting in the fridge.)
Erica Harless says
I WANT SUPPER
I love getting free meals off my parents or in-laws :)
Michelle says
I WANT SUPPER
When my boyfriend and I go out, we order appetizers for each other. We both have our food comfort zones, and when we order for each other we find new dishes we like and laugh at the faces we make when we taste dishes we don’t like. Either way it’s fun.
Vicki says
I want supper!
This fall, my family (me, husband and 18 mo old daughter) and our friends’ family (mom, dad, 3 yr old and 18 mo old) decided that our traditional “Monday Night Football” invites were not working anymore (thanks, kids! :) ). We decided to meet for dinner every other week at eachothers house were the host family was in charge of dinner. THAT’s my favorite dinner of the week…even if we are hosting, it means we share it with friends for the evening.
Lavender Lily says
I WANT SUPPER!
I try to cook a few times a week, but my fallback dinner is a bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios.
Katie says
I WANT SUPPER!
I didn’t grow up in a household that did much cooking from scratch so now I’m always trying to learn, and I really enjoy it!
My favorite thing is that each month my girlfriends and I hold a potluck with a different theme. It inspires us all to try new recipes for each other and is always crazy. This month is a “celebrity-inspired dish”. Past months have included: foods representing your heritage, foods starting with your initials, food showing your appreciation for someone, ect. Anyway it’s a fun way to mix up the cooking.
Desi says
I want supper! I let nature dictate our meals by getting what looks good at our Farmer’s Market, or using what we get in our Good Food Box (our CSA) during non-Farmer’s Market months. When you start with delicious, wholesome food, it’s good no matter how you prepare it!
Colleen says
I want supper! We take turns having our really good friends over for dinner and then going over to their place the next time. It’s fun to get together, it’s cheaper than going out, and we get a night off from cooking!
Heather M says
I Want Supper!!
I love to cook, and can never leave a recipe alone. I usually find 1 or 2 recipes I like as inspiration, then change it up depending on the ingredients I have. I also have a tendency not to measure things (unless I’m baking), so far no major disasters. The only problem is, if it turns out great, I can never quite make it the same.
Amy says
I WANT SUPPER!!
I love the breakfast for dinner thing- it throws my kids totally out of whack…every time.
Tyler says
I WANT SUPPER!
The best meal of the week is our tradition of Sunday night dinner at mom and pop’s house. My mom is such a good cook, there is even a waiting list of friends who want to enjoy our family dinner with us :)
Ashley N. says
I Want Supper!
I love to try new recipes. My slow cooker is my favorite tool in the kitchen though. So fast and easy!
Lindsay B says
I WANT SUPPER!
Here’s our super unorganized approach to grocery shopping and cooking dinner: Without planning meals for the week or even making a grocery list, we go to the store, and start filling our cart with things that look good. We try to plan our meals as we walk the aisles, but with no list to go by, we end up forgetting ingredients and add too many unneeded groceries (because at the time, I really WANTED three different flavors of Pop-Tarts). By the time we get home, we’ve spent $150 on food, and still don’t have all the ingredients for a full meal. So we go back the next day to pick up the forgotten food and spend another $50.

Laurie S. says
I WANT SUPPER!! My best friend and I love to swap recipes successes. When I’m in a slump, I always give her a call.
Brittany S says
I want supper!
Our favorite way to mix it up is to use only items we have at home already – no running to the store for extra ingredients. It’s amazing how creative and delicious dinner can be when you only use what you’ve got on hand.
Val says
I want supper! I love to cook but our fav go to when we haven’t been to the grocery store, don’t feel like cooking, or after an unexpected long day at work is grilled cheese and tomato soup. Of course we’ve improved on the contents of this dinner… not the condensed, but the organic roast tomato soup with a delicious gooey cheese and thick french bread version is where it’s at! The boyfriend still likes to add gold fish to his though, sometimes:)
Melissa says
I WANT SUPPER!
I’ve never really cooked much until this year, so my way of mixing things up is for something to turn out right!
Mark says
“I WANT SUPPER” we LOVE eggplant-parm at least once a week.
Judi B says
I WANT SUPPER
I like to look for new recipes once a week when I’m doing well with the meal planning…but lately I haven’t been doing so well. It’s been a lot of leftovers and freezer dinners (made ahead and saved for lazy times).
Lauren says
“I WANT SUPPER” and…who doesn’t love breakfast for dinner?!”
Jennifer S. says
I WANT SUPPER — We’re pretty humdrum in the kitchen during the week. We’ve got a handfull of easy 15 minute/healthy meals that we use pretty much every week and we only mix it up if I find a new one (15 minutes and healthy are hard to come by) or when we go out to dinner on Fridays!
amanda says
I want supper
I can’t say i really mix it up all that much in the kitchen…I guess other than mixing up recipe instructions. Clearly I need some help.
Lauren says
I want supper! And my version of supper is enjoying my fiance’s cooking!
Jennifer says
I want Supper!! I love cooking.. but often find myself short on time.. I like the freezer pasta meals where you just throw the meal in the skillet, cook 10 minutes and eat :)
ALY says
I WANT SUPPER
Love using leftovers to create something new on busy nights… or go out to dinner! :)
Ted Robinson says
I WANT SUPPER
Debra says
I want supper! We love having breakfast for supper and another favorite is homemade tomato soup and grilled cheese.
meghan leimenstoll says
I want supper!
We live my parents right now while our house is being built…so our way of mixing it up is agreeing to do dishes if my mom cooks…nothin’ beats mom’s cooking, right?
Christina says
i want supper! i need major help in this department!
Lauren says
I WANT SUUUPPPERRR!
To change things up I head on over to http://www.foodnetwork.com, type in the word of something I already have (weather it be groung turkey, shrimp, etc.) and find a recipe that fits some of the stuff I already have (like pasta). Most of the times it works out, and if it doesn’t, then it’s carry out. :)
Susan Kelly says
I WANT SUPPER! My way of mixing it up is to acutally cook for a change…
Kate M. says
I WANT SUPPER….. My fiance and I frequent Trader Joe’s, which has amazing pre-made frozen options that are delicious, ranging from orange sesame chicken to chicken curry. Just throw in some stir-fry veggies or a box of yellow rice and you’ve got an easy meal.
KayAnne says
I WANT SUPPER! I haven’t tried mixing things up for my dinner since i still live with my parents and we have helpers at home who do the cooking. But in a few weeks i’ll be on my own living in my new apartment so i’m subscribing to youvegotsupper.com too!
Laura says
I want Supper! We love to mix it up with themed cuisine whenever we can, always fun and always delicious!
txhorns says
I Want Supper- breakfast for dinner is my fall-back option. My kids LOVE it, it’s easy to prepare and we almost always have everything on hand. Perfect for those nights you really don’t feel like cooking!
Christine says
I WANT SUPPER!
To mix things up a bit in the kitchen I like to try cooking different cuisines like Thai or Mexican. It makes it a lot of fun and you learn about ingredients that you don’t normally use.
Heather says
I want supper!!!
We are bbq crazy, even in pouring rain, snow, whatever, my husband stands outside, at least a couple times a week grilling dinner!
Marcie says
I want supper!
I mix it up by trying recipes I find on fun food blogs and by searching for ways to try new ingredients I haven’t used before.
rebecca says
I want supper.
Like that it is called supper, not dinner. That is my preferred vernacular for an evening meal. I like to get a free range locally raised chicken and make it last for several meals. I roast it, which is easy and delicious then I make a stock out of the bones, and then we have a week of chicken sandwichs for lunch, chicken noodle soup, and stirfry. So even though it is more expensive to buy a local organic whole bird, it just keeps on giving and is actually pretty economical
Tara says
I want Supper! I am blessed because my husband went to culinary school! We love RecipeZaar.com for trying out tasty new recipes.
Ashley Mc says
“I WANT SUPPER” – We like to change things up and have “family dinner” with our best friends!
