Ever since Micah and I started dating, I tried to cook great meals that he would like. I am proud to say that Micah really loves my cooking!
Now since we've been married, I really am trying to cook great meals, plan the meals, and get great deals at the store when I do so.
I have been scouring the web for great websites to help with all this and I've found some great ones. I planned out a great shopping trip and two weeks worth of meals. I'm pleased to say that this first week went wonderfully!
I saved about 20% of what I would have spent at the store if I hadn't shopped the sales and used coupons. I'm working on a better savings this next trip. My menu planning really helped me out. I didn't eat out any this week. None of my food has gone to waste and Micah and I tried some new recipes out!
I have been using http://www.southernsavers.com/ as a reference for my shopping/budgeting. She has some great tips, lists out the stores, and even provides some videos to help with everything. I really like it!
If anyone has any favorite recipes to share, please do! We love trying new things and I love the recipes that are simple, yet delicious.
