Cinco De Mayo is tomorrow, and we thought some of you might want a few recipe ideas for the day! Just my opinion, but homemade pico di gallo makes everything taste better (well, just about anything). I love the fresh taste it adds to Mexican dishes, but is also great with chicken, steak and as [...]
I love finding economical and easy ways to make things my family uses all the time. This particular one is one I personally use reguarly - Iced coffee and coffee syrup! I love an iced coffee to start the morning, especially once summer starts. I have tried the iced K-cups for my keurig, but frankly [...]
Have any of you noticed how expensive peanut butter has gotten? It seems crazy! I have two boys who love peanut butter and a husband who loves it and a dog who loves it! Typically, we go through a jar a week, but lately I have been spread it a little thinner than usual [...]
This past year I have become a little obsessed with coconut oil. I first started researching it because my grandmother has severe dementia and possibly Alzheimers disease and in my research, coconut oil has been found in some studies to help.

Last month, Sia showed you how simple it was to use Great Value refrigerated dough as the basis for some yummy recipes such as individual chicken pot pies and mini caramel apple pie tarts using Great Value refrigerated pie crust. The holidays are such a busy time of year with a lot of cooking & [...]
I recently hosted a small coupon class in my house and needed some frugal recipes for entertaining (and easy, since there was lots of planning involved in the days event). What I came up with were individual pot pies for each attendee, accompanied by some Asian salad, and then individual size apple pies for dessert. [...]
One of my favorite recipes to not only make for our family, but to make for others when I bring them a meal is a Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup. This soup is so incredibly easy yet it tastes delicious and most people usually love it. I just love the fact that it involves little [...]
Here is a really simple, and frugal recipe for Spice Cake with Rum Cream Cheese Frosting! This is a great fall recipe, and goes great with coffee, apple cider or a cold glass of milk. Best part is that you cheat by starting with a box cake! Its frugal, because you can often get boxed [...]
