And the Holiday Gift Giveaway for Friday is……

The Frugal Foodie Cookbook

You know how much I watch what we spend at the grocery store and we make our Meal Plan 4 weeks in advance and stick to it 90% of the time and I also love to try new recipes. Well let me say this little book is a BIBLE of savings, recipes and ideas. It’s a MUST Have in your kitchen.

The author Lara Starr is a baker,a  blogger and a cook with a calculator ( I love that) and Lynette Shirk is a four star Frugal Foodie who has cooked at Masa’s , Postrio, Chez Panisee and Williams-Sonoma. This book is all about eating better than ever on less… Just perfect for me.

So I gave it a try and I will not let go of this anymore. This will stay in my kitchen right next to me when I make my meal plans from now on…

This Book will provide you tips, tricks and ideas on how to make a great Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner for a lot less, but still tasty as ever…How about making your own  personal Bisquick Mix….??

Base Bisquick Mix

8 cups Flour

1/3 cup baking powder

1 tablespoon salt

3 tablespoons sugar

8 ounces unsalted butter

then you can make Biscuits , Pancakes or waffles by adding the remainder like Milk, eggs or vanilla…

I love recipes that can be used in many different ways… this book is just easy to use and will save you a lot of money at the grocery store but will give you ideas for a great meal for your family.

You can buy this book on Amazon.com or your local book store. This book retails for $15.95;

or you can win your own copy by entering my Giveaway. This would make a great hostess gift, teacher gift and many more possibilities… or just keep it all to yourself.. you will love it..

MERRY CHRISTMAS…

  2. Right now I am just learning the frugal lifestyle and I am not very good at it yet so my only answer that I have used so far is clipping coupons. I am hoping to learn how to do this stockpiling thing, cooking from scatch, and much more. I am sure this book will help in my adventures.

  8. money saving tip? Cloth diapers! i save an average of 100 bucks a month by using cloth. if i had a washing machine at home instead of using the laundry mat i’d save even more.

  12. Only buy what you can use is my trick. I know a lot of people buy because it’s a great deal but then it just sits there.. if you dont use it no matter how good of a deal it is, it didn’t save you any money

  18. my tip is to buy things on sale around thanksgiving time, like cranberry sauce, canned soups etc. and use them year round.

  21. My favorite savings tip is coupons and BOGO. That is the best way to save money.

  28. My favorite savings tip is to plan your meals around what is on sale or what you already have stockpiled…..and combining your store/manuf/comp coupons for things you need with b1g1 sales!

  29. I would love to win this because it fits right in with me trying to cut as much as I can from the grocery budget!!!

  30. My favorite frugal tip is stockpile shopping with coupons, I cut all coupons, I match to sales and I buy as many as i can. if I can get something free and I cannot use it, I donate it, give it to friends or add it to gift baskets. I love couponing and I always have goodies to share!

  31. I would love to win this give away because I would like more hints on ways to save in the kitchen…I cook from scratch almost every day and I also collect cookbooks!!

  41. Savings tips: Use a Water filter on your faucet, it saves a ton of money vs. buying bottled water, cut out soda and junk food, meal plan at least for a week at a time, and shop the sales with coupons and ecb’s at CVS. 🙂

  42. I would love to win this for me….I am always looking for more ways to be frugal and I love cooking! 🙂
