This first post is going to be about meal planning. What I hope will be a brief (for me) introduction to planning meals which are easy to prepare, that also reduce waste, environmental impact, and cost without having to eat the same thing every night. This might seem obvious, but to someone whose diet consists largely of takeout or prepared foods, the first step to meal planning is to learn what
Okay, so you’ve worked hard to get your home office organized and you’ve developed some strong skills in parenting as well. You might be thinking you have it all covered at home since your pantry is organized immaculately and everything in your kitchen has its place. It doesn’t change the fact that you’re [...]
I was excited to hear about Lily On The Fly because, though I consider myself a good cook, I rarely remember to plan meals in advance and am often throwing something together at the last minute or eating appetizers for supper.
When the starter kit arrived in the mail it was even better than I thought it would be. It’s not just recipe cards - it really is a complete family meal planning kit that includes a deck of 36 meal cards and a 7 slot magnetic organizer so your whole week of meals is easily accessible on your fridge. The cards are colour coded into main dishes, side dishes and treats for easy planning, and each card has easy to follow instructions for day-before/morning prep as well as the last minute toss-together instructions. Turn the magnetic holder over and the back of each card becomes your shopping list for the week.
Brilliant, isn’t it? It really is the total package.
There are recipes that take a little bit of prep and recipes that take hardly any so
By: Bob Strute Are you forever agonizing with designing menus for your household? Don't we all? Preparing food isn't so hard,but I have trouble coming up with unique ideas and when I think of something I commonly don't have the ingredients available, which either postpones my grand plans then and there or means hopping in the car and running to the market. Arranging menus coordinates my thoughts and helps me to lay out what I'm going to serve for the next several days.Having a shopping list is a efficient, time and money saving tool. When it's on your list, you don't have to remember it,it's right there in black and white.No missing ingredients and less chance for big ticked and unnecessary purchases.Buy only what is on your list!Everyday was the same thing. If your home is like ours, the kids have gotten home from school, I'm home from work and I have no idea what I was going to fix for dinner.Is it any wonder that pizza delivery is such a big business, it is usually that or s

This is a great way to save some money. Plan your meals for the week and make a list for the grocery store. Actually stick to the list. When you are at the grocery look for store brand items , they can save you quite a bit. Always check the meat-sales. Our local grocery store puts the meat from that day in a "meat-sale" section and you can get some great bargains there. The meat is always just from that day and never out of date. They just do not like their meat to carry over to the next day so they mark it down. I can get ground chuck family packs for $2.50!! Steaks are usually $.99 and big roast are always $3.00!!!! Our freezer is always full. If you have to buy name brand ,than always try to use coupons or buy the item on sale. When they have something on sale that you are always using ,STOCK UP!! Like ,for example, the grocery store has tomato juice (that I always use for soups) on sale for $.89 when it is usually $1.09, so I bought the limit of 4 cans !! Now I have it on hand an
