Finances...blah

I think this will always be the title of my Financial Post...BLAH!!! It is probably my least favorite. But I have decided to embrace Finances after all its like embracing freedom. If we are free financially it opens up an entire world! We will live in peace know that we are spending and saving wisely. Some of my FAVORITE INGREDIENTS to buy when trying to save alittle and still provide a HEALTHY FLAVORFUL MEAL are...

Frozen Vegtables- Next to Fresh frozen keep there nutrional value the best
Canned Tomatos and Beans- Canned food is one of the cheapest things you can buy. Beans and Tomatos are about the only canned food I will buy though. All other canned food have WAY too many preservatives that just are NOT worth the savings to me.
Protien on Sale- I try to buy my meat when its on sale and FREEZE it! Bulk stores usually have great deals. I break up my chicken breast into packs of 4 so its easy to thaw out just what I need for the day.
Apples- Yummy crisp sweet and very fiborous! They are a great on the go snack! look for the sale apples... I just bought some for 99 cents/lbs. STEAL of a DEAL

You can make a pretty good meal with those. Tonight we are having Turky Spaghetti. One can of tomato sauce One can of stewed Vegtable some fresh mushrooms and onions and lots of good seasoning. Then threw in one pound of ground 97% lean turkey. :-) Yum! We will top it on some whole wheat noodles or tofu noodles. I will probably throw some frozen broccoli in the microwave for 5 quick minutes a ton of nutritional value!

See saving can be fun! :-)
