Cooking from scratch
This is a very cost saving change. Prepackaged foods are not only usually more expensive, but not as healthy as what we can make from home. Better health means less sick days, less trips to the docs.
This weeks assignment is to learn two new from scratch recipes. Share them in the comments section :)
Not recipes, but two things that I did last week to trim the budget and make fewer trips to the store is dig out my bread machine and make my own bread and quit drinking soda...cold turkey...its been a trying week but getting better. I am amazed at how making our own bread is saving me. My kids pick a slice of bread as a snack instead of more costly snacks and I'm not constantly running to the store for another loaf!!!
