Recipe Hack / Cooking Tips:
- No Bake Desserts: If you are baking challenged like me these recipes are for you. Making dessert a couple days in advance so you are not stressed the day of a party. Plus ice cream can be made with no machine with few ingredients.
- Slow Cooker: When trying to save money on food the slow cooker is definitely the way to go! The slow cooker breaks down tough inexpensive cuts of meat to fall apart flavorful dishes with store bought canned food and jarred sauces.
- Your Pantry Has Tons of Ingredients: you can use to save money and shopping. Clean out your pantry and start using dried herbs and store bought sauces to cut down on the ingredients you need to buy. The best 5 ingredient recipes use great store bought sauces.
