Family Balance Sheet

Beans are an inexpensive way to add protein and fiber to your diet and cooking them will save you even more money. In this post, I offer two ways to cook dried beans: crock pot and stove top. I prefer the slow cooker method, because I don’t have to be home when the beans are cooking. Let stand for 1 hour.

I am looking for meal prep short cuts that do not sacrifice the quality of our meals, but still save myself time and maybe even some money. I place all of the chicken breasts from a 3 lb package in a 6-Quart crock-pot. I pour about 32 oz of homemade chicken stock on top and cooked on low for about 6-7 hours, or until it is done.
