  2. smart cooking tip: use aluminum foil instead of plastic zip lock bags for things that are fried or dry. they’ll stay that way!

  8. I grew up in a household where my father had to watch his sodium intake. You would be amazed at how little you really need to add salt to dishes. Mom always said the only exception was some baking goods.

  12. My smart tip is to clean as you go when you cook. It makes for easier clean up at the end.

  24. I always make more than we need and I serve the leftovers either the next day or I freeze it for another time

  35. Cook, with Olive Oil!
    .-= Nadia @ ABC Frugality´s last blog ..Target Deals Week of 1/24 =-.

  37. Smart tips ~ I tend to make extra just in case one of my 3 teenage daughters brings home company. We are big on leftovers & usually I make larger meals on the weekends. Tuesdays are our leftovers night so that I can clean out the fridge. I buy in bulk when it comes to meats, separate them into meal size freezer bag portions. I only buy meat when its on sale or at our local Sam’s Club. I read & love so many of the other suggestions posted! Many I do but some I’ll be trying in the near future! Thanks!

  45. Smart Tip: Instead of buying packaged garlic bread, make your own, itms simple.
    -Use whole wheat or whole grain presliced sandwich bread
    – mix finely chopped parsley and finely chopped garlic with olive oil
    – spread mixture on bread and there you have homemade, delicious an good for you garlic bread.

    Hope you like it.

  47. instead of cooking with sour cream substitute with these:
    Plain low-fat yogurt, or 1/2 cup cottage cheese blended with 1½ tsp. lemon juice, or low- or nonfat sour cream

  60. My smart cooking tip is to buy ground beef that is less lean, brown and then drain and rinse it in hot water. It’s cheaper than the extra lean and the extra effort to cook and drain it is worth it.

  64. My tip: Roll lemons before squeezing and they will yield more juice.

  65. I cook twice as much as I need for dinner and throw the rest in the freezer. I don’t have to cook as often. Kinda like doing the freezer meals.

  70. My tip – spray the inside of your measuring cups w/ cooking spray before measuring sticky stuff (peanut butter, honey, ect.) – No sticky mess!

  72. My smart cooking tip is to always halve the called for meat, and double up on the vegetables, grains for a healthier and cheaper meal.

  77. smart cooking tip: replace regular pepperoni with turkey pepperoni – it tastes the same but is less greasy – which I find more enjoyable. Also, I buy pasta, ground beef, and chicken breasts in bulk when it is on sale, and freeze the meat in meal sized portions :)

  81. if you need whole milk for cooking and you don’t have some , then for 1 cup of whole milk you can substitute 1/2 cup evaporated milk plus 1/2 cup of water OR 1 cup of water plus 1/3 cup of nonfat dry milk powder.

  84. If you are making a casserole or one dish meal–make double and freeze one. It certainly will be a cooking time saver either later in the week or for the following week. Especially if it’s something your family loves!

  87. My tip is to always shop sales and stock up when sales are good – especially meat which can then be frozen.

  89. Freezer meals…no only does it help with getting a healthy meal on the table in a shrot amount of time, it is also great for me as a mom of 3 young boys that don’t like it when I’m stuck in the kitchen (esp. during the hard 4-6 pm timeframe)!

  94. I am a subscriber thru email and would tweet but dont know how!!!
    Thanks for the giveaway.

  96. I use on sale short ribs ususally 2.00 a pack for beef stew meat, instead of pricey beef roasts.
    Great taste and Good price

  98. I like to do one pot meals for easy cleanup. If you’re roasting a chicken, roast potatoes and peas around it. If you’re making a meatloaf, bake cauliflouer and beans, etc.

  103. I always make enough at dinner so there’s always leftovers. My husband takes these to work and we don’t have to pay for expensive fast food! My husband is also the envy of everyone in the lunchroom!

  104. I cook roaster chickens in the Crockpot with just a splash of lemon and some garlic and let it cook all day. The chicken falls off the bone and has excellent flavor plus it’s super easy!

  105. Cooking tip: I add a half pound of cooked ground beef to a box (or package) of spanish rice before cooking the rice. Add about an extra quarter cup of water than what the boxed recipe calls for. A complete meal in one dish – and tastes good too.

  112. My food tip is to cook as many meals in a crock pot as possible on the weekend. The food we cook on the weekends is usually the type of meals that can be frozen and then heated up during the week after hubby gets off work. We never cook long drawn out meals during work days!

  117. My smart cooking tip is to let my husband do all the cooking. I also try to replace oil with applesauce when baking.

  120. I always buy my more expensive oils at places like Big Lots and TJ Maxx. I can usually get larger bottles for less price.

  137. I like to buy meat in bulk to save money, and seperate it into servings when I get home by putting it into freezer bags. Thanks for the review and giveaway…this looks like a great book!

  138. My smart tip is to substitute applesauce for oil when baking. You don’t even notice the difference in taste and much healthier for you!

  141. I plan a month’s worth of food at one time and cook all my chicken (in the oven) and beef at one time, separating them into bags with other freezable ingredients. Then I just take the bag out the night before and add whatever needs to be added. Very fast!

  149. To double the amount of your butter used for spreading, simply whip it with a small amount of warm water until it’s light and fluffy. This isn’t ideal for baking recipes that need a specific fat amount, but it’s great for spreading on your bread or corn-on-the-cob. Just keep it in the refrigerator, and it should stay light.

  152. Smart Cooking Tip: I use our George Foreman grill to grill chicken tenders and then we add them to our salad. Makes for a very healthy dinner or lunch.

  154. I tweeted!

    Smart cooking tip – I buy meat in bulk when it’s a good deal. When I get home I put the meat into single serving ziploc bags before freezing so I don’t overeat and don’t ruin the portions I’m not ready to use.
    I also make meals that are larger (lasagna) that make for wonderful leftovers so I spend less time cooking.

  155. Chopping up my veggies as soon as I get home from the store means I actually use them in lots of dishes. Somehow having to prepare them later equates to not using them at all. I find we eat so many more veggies with all of our meals this way and we don’t waste fresh food!

  158. Smart Cooking Tip:
    I buy meat in bulk when it is on sale and freeze it in meal sized portions with marinade on it. That way I always have inexpensive meat on hand and the meat fills with flavor as it thaws in the fridge!

  162. Smart cooking tip, I always cut down on recipes for example, I will make the recipe splitting everything in half so there aren’t many needs for leftovers!

  165. Smart Cooking Tip.

    I always make sure I make enough dinner so that there’s leftovers for lunch the next say. I don’t mind eating them, and keeps me from spending money at the overpriced Cafe in my office building.

  173. Smart cooking tip, if you’re out of milk just use some creamer with a bit of water mixed in and it works just the same. You can also do it with yogurt. Much cheaper than a gallon of milk!

  177. smart cooking tip: To stretch a pound of lean ground beef or turkey farther (for instance, in tacos), I stir in a bag of cooked brown rice (boil in the bag). Not only does the brown rice add fiber and make it more filling, but we get an extra meal out of the meat this way.
