A couple of years ago, I coined the term, Kitchen Economics , after I read a dictionary definition of the word "economics" : "the science that deals with the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services, or the material welfare of humankind." Have an emergency back up meal in freezer or pantry at all times.

From May-October, we eat outside on the patio for many meals and it would be so easy to use paper plates each time. I re-use pasta sauce jars for my homemade chicken stock , or my Roasted Roma Tomato Sauce , or my homemade sugar-free applesauce and store them in my freezer. Save the paper plates for your really BIG parties.

Meal time is starting to get more hectic around here. 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 pour about 32 oz of homemade chicken stock on top and cooked on low for about 6-7 hours, or until it is done.
