frugal friday:

Today on frugal friday I want to share some of my favorite yet inexpensive and quick meals.

One of my favorite things to do is to take a whole chicken and boil it off the bones so that i have plenty of meat to work with. With that I can make many different meals. I can make cheesey pasta chicken casserole, chicken stuffing casserole, and chicken dumplings to name just a few.

Hamburger is another meat that I love to use. Walmart is the lowest place in my area to purchase hamburger unless a great sale is going on. But still even for my family of 8 a lb or 2 of hamburger can go quite a ways.

Peanut butter is yet another great staple in my cupboard that I keep. PB can go a long ways as you can imagine this frugal mommy can push it to a point of no come back. Peanut butter sandwiches, pb cookies, pb no bake cookies to name just a few.

I am listing a few of my favorite recipes so that you can add them to your list of quick easy frugal meals to make.
