Food from restaurants can cost significantly more than food cooked at home. A plate of pasta with red sauce can cost less than a dollar if made at home; at most restaurants it will cost you well over $10. Make sure that you plan for some quick recipes too. So why do we eat out so often? The same goes for New Years Eve.

Now, having a husband who is a chef is generally a good thing but when they spend all day cooking at work they aren’t always so excited about cooking at home! So when I told him he had been challenged to make an original recipe using the wraps he was excited to get started. Cut into wedges and put on plate.

I recently did the “Countdown to Dinner” with Ronzoni Quick Cook pasta. Visit Ronzoni and leave a comment here telling me your favorite Ronzoni 3 -Minute Recipe.

They’re perfect for noodle stir-fries, pad thai and many more recipes. Ready in just three minutes, the microwaveable meals contain pre-cooked thin rice noodles, a vegetable packet and sauce pouch. I think I’ll grab a box or two to keep in the pantry on those rare nights I’m home alone. Need some inspiration?

Having fresh herbs on hand is a delicious way I like to spice up my cooking at home. It’s a staple of many South American and Asian cooking styles, so you’re sure to find plenty of recipes that call for it. Most recipes call for the tiny petals of the flower to be used. This French herb has a good pedigree.

blogs at Modern Tightwad and is most content being at home with her husband and dog, writing about ways to make the life you love, the life you can afford. One of my favorite ways to pass a day is cooking from scratch. When my family is at home, and we’re all tired, a warm meal on a cold day can revive us all.
