In our current economy everyone could stand to hold on to a few cents here and there. Fuel prices are out of control jobs aren't abundant and chances are you have a long commute to make in the am, or maybe you are one of the lucky ones.
The point is we all need to save some change. I am going to divvy up with you several of my ways for pocketing a little extra change.
For gods sake stop going out to restaurants. A recession is a good time to hone up on your cooking abilities. How many types of manicotti sauces can you cook? Two weeks ago I could only make one, by and large it was poured from a jar. Now I am cooking clams sautéed in shallots and garlic olive oil, that's right delicious. Best part is I am saving tons of money from purchasing and preparing my own meals. An added extra, its pretty fun.
What to Shop For
Pasta - Its cheap and can be cooked 101 various ways.
Frozen Veggies - We all wish we could get fresh fruit and vegetables but that is fairly costly. Keep to the frozen food section. Broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts all keep very well even if frozen. Keep to the heartier veggies they can stand the freeze.
- Be Vegan - Ok I love meat too but I will not consume the "grade F" meat just to save some money. Once in awhile I indulge in a nice filet mignon but its mostly pasta and veggies
- Vegan Is Nuts - Well if you must get your protein from an animal stick to the good cheap protein, primarily eggs.
- Buy Seasonings - This is where the cooking comes in. Lots of styles of food can be had with the correct seasoning
- Get Your Fats - I prefer olive oil, its inexpensive works good for sauteeing and is much healthier than some good old butter. Ok, ok, I do get butter too...every so often.
- Avoid the pre-made meals - They are high-priced and I bet you that you could make a better meal yourself.
