Meals
Welcome to my brand new “series”! My goal this year is to make more meals at home. Healthy, budget friendly meals that won’t take FOREVER in the kitchen. The first step to getting started is the basics of Menu Planning. Each month, maybe more frequently, I’ll bring you great recipes for meals you can make at home with KEY ingredients: Healthy, Budget Friendly & Time Saving. They may not all include every key ingredient, but I hope all of them will include at least ONE of those three KEY ingredients!
Starting off my fantastic series is Cristi from The King’s Court IV. She’s got a great Frugal Friday 101 series on her blog, so I asked her to help me out with a guest post about “the basics” of meal planning.
Without further ado here’s the Healthy & Budget Friendly Meals Series:

Always looking for healthy and budget friendly meals!!!! It seems like it is so much more expensive and complicated to cook healthy, so you’re posts are going to be a big help to me! Thank you so much!

If I can keep getting them. LOL. I wish I had more, but I’m not much of a cook and the person who was going to do it, left me high and dry.
We cook all our meals at home!
I’m not so lucky, since I really am not meant to be near a kitchen. It’s best for all of us in the family if I just stick to eating! LOL. But I do make some attempts…..
this is awesome, I always look for easy & healthy things that I can afford to make, thanks!
I’m glad you like it. I’m hoping to increase the posts……one of these days!
I want to eat better myself but also save when doing it. Eating healthy seems to be so expensive so having coupons really helps.
It can be expensive. I am working on finding great deals for more healthy options. But cooking from scratch is the first step, which I struggle with every day. It’s rough.
I love the idea of heathing healthy but it is so expensive! Thanks for the ideas on eating on a budget!
I have the same issues. It’s why I’m trying to recruit other people to help my readers and ME to get on track, you know? I strive to bring the best quality stuff to all of you. Little by little, I make it happen, I HOPE!
Having a family of 8 finding meals that will fill everyone and keep us from going broke isn’t easy. This is a great post!
Thanks so much. I’m super excited to have guest bloggers write these for me. If anyone wants to share recipes, I’m always happy to have you share!
