I've been getting off work at 6 or 7, come home starving and not wanting to do more than 30 minutes of work, and we've been ending up going out a LOT or buying canned beans/convinence foods. Then I had a great idea! I made a list of 14 meals we love, the ingredients required for each, and the prep work needed to be done before I go to work (i.e. cook beans/ chop veggies/ make marinara sauce) for the past 3 days we've actually had frugal meals without a lot of hassell, and have eaten before 8 PM! I'm stoked. I also know what types of stuff I need to buy for the up coming week, since I know what my meals will be. Anyway, just my $0.02, that planning makes a WHOLE LOT of difference.<BR/><BR/>RuthieRuthiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15385890645302358783noreply@blogger.com
