trying to come up w/ menus, and of course

money for all the food its gonna take lol

 

That, my dear, is why I suggested

the Saving Dinner routine.

(http://savingdinner.com)

Let Leanne do the planning for you!

 

You will save on the grocery bill by

buying only what you need. The instructions

are easy to follow. Many young parents

who had never really learned to cook

have found that they can do this, the

family is healtier, and they are saving

money.

 

You eat now, don't you? What does your family

like? Maybe we can brainstorm and adapt

some things?

 

Please remember that cr & p out of boxes

is always more expensive than plain whole food.

 

Take cold breakfast cereals.

The kids have been brainwashed into believing

that they need them, and they are handy.

How many boxes a week do you go through?

Or those little pouches of instant oatmeal?

Now check the cost of a kilo of old-fashioned

oatmeal.

 

No time in the morning to cook?

You don't need to! In the evening, pour boiling

water over your oatmeal. It will be as good

as ready in the morning. Add some raisins

or other dried fruit. It will plump up overnight

and be just delicious. All you have to do is

warm it up, NOT in the microwave!. It will take

five minutes of you standing there stirring

the pan with a wooden spoon. It burns if you

don't keep an eye on it or if you have the

burner too high.

 

Add some powdered cinnamon.

Cinnamon not only tastes great, it is a healing

herb that helps to stabilize blood sugar levels,

among other things.

It is OK to put a bit of sugar in this. Honey

or maple syrup ( the real kind, from trees)

are nice too. If you use milk, add canned milk

for extra protein.

 

Extra yummies are sunflower seeds, not so

yummy but so good for you is ground flax

seeds, added at the last minute.

 

Have you read the interview with

Dr. Blaylock on excitotoxins yet?

It is on http://newstarget.com

If that can't get people motivated

to cook from scratch I give up.
