Family Balance Sheet

AUGUST 9, 2017

This post is sponsored by GIANT Food Stores. Recently, I had my question answered when GIANT Food Stores invited me and my daughters to meet with the in-store nutritionist, Madelyn, at their Camp Hill, PA store. She also asked them what their favorite foods are and what kinds of things they would like to see in their lunch.

Homemade Margarita Mix via Slim Pickin’s Kitchen. Plus, a number of ingredients are optional and others list possible substitutions, so you’re not out of luck if you can’t get everything the recipe calls for.

I used the recipe on the cornmeal bag and I baked in my cast iron skillet. Sunday: We were still snowed in, and thankfully, we had plenty of food. Monday: Slow Cooker Chicken & Black Bean Tacos . Tuesday: I made Burrito Bowls using leftovers from Monday night. We also had homemade applesauce. Blizzard2016.

We don’t want to make our families miserable with bland meals, boring snacks, and not enough food in the house, but we must stay on budget. Spaghetti made with pre-cooked sausage and my homemade roasted vegetable sauce. Tacos using pre-cooked chicken or ground turkey that I keep in the freezer and homemade taco seasoning.

On Sundays, we’ll meet here to catch our breath, and let everyone know how we’re finding our $1000. Yes, there are coupons, but you don’t have to use them to reduce your grocery bill. I do not use a lot of coupons–mostly because I find so few for products that we use. 20 Ways to Use Ripe Bananas.

Using coupons will save you money at the register, but using your food wisely is going to save you money as well! We wasted more food (produce, leftovers, etc. We ate more quick/convenience foods. I always find we have more food than we think and can usually count on finding a few things that I had forgotten about.

I just had salad and veggies but I know there were a lot of hidden calories and fat in the salad dressing as well as whatever was used to cook the veggies. It’s so much easier at home when I can control more how my food is cooked but eating out is a part of life! I have added artichokes to my homemade marinated mushrooms.

To the overworked housewife in the 1950s, convenience foods were a fun novelty that gave her more time to do other things besides cook.

Weekly food prep is one of my biggest tips for making quick and easy meals, and the best way to meal prep chicken thighs is in the oven—under the broiler. I prefer food prep or a combination of the two because it allows for more flexibility and is less complicated.
