[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 84158, member: 84"] My Mom used to eat dandilion greens, cooked or in salad. Blah! However wild onions are rather yummy. lol They also happen to be rather rampant around here. We can go thru almost 2 gal of milk a day. Our family has always been huge milk lovers. My kids prefer it over any other drink, believe it or not. I'm sooooo glad I'm not the only one gripping about the horrid price of milk. Ours is right at 4.00 a gal. Lucky us, we're out in the boonies but considered a Tourist Area, so our prices are off the wall during the warm months. Argh! I've told everyone that only Aubrey is allowed to use milk as a beverage. Anyone else caught drinking it will be likely to find themselves with a missing arm. It's helping quite a bit. Food prices are also going way up. Meat is awfully high. Fresh produce can make me stroke if I can't find a sale. [img]:surprise:[/img] I save money by making meals that last more than 1 day with leftovers. Meatloaf - turns into meatloaf sandwiches the next day Potroast with trimmings - turns 2 days worth of beef hash Potroast with mushroom gravy - turns into 2-3 days worth of beef and noodles Stew meat - turns into at least 4 days worth of Veg Soup or Beef Stew Baked whole chicken - turns into 2 days of chicken and noodles OR 2-3 days of chicken hash Spagetti - at least 1 day of left overs Spagetti and cheese - 2 days of left overs (a kids fav with added cut up hot dogs) Cheese burger Macaroni - 2 days if homemade (and tastes better) Pork roast/loin - 2-3 days of pulled pork sandwiches YUMMY! lol These are what I can think of at the moment. But as you can see, I get ALOT of left overs. lmao It cuts down on cooking and stretches meat and other foods really far. Course you could always cook my Mom's old stand by: Fried potatoes, mac and cheese, and sweet rice. [img]:smile:[/img] Very nutritious and filling poor man's meal. It was a fav of ours growing up. (good thing as we ate it OFTEN) It's also one of my family's fav meals. lol [/QUOTE]
