[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stop buying drinks. Water is fine.[/quote] My teens drink a ton of whole milk. It's an easy, cheap way to get the calories into them.[/quote] Milk is good. I remember my mom feeding us (many) kids with big bags of potatoes and onions, eggs, pasta and they would buy and freeze a bulk amount of cow (a side? I don't know) so she had lots of hamburger to sprinkle in for flavor. She didn't grow up with a bean culture but adding beans to that is also a fantastic way to bulk it out. She was also a decent baker but found a restaurant outlet that sold blueberry muffin and chocolate chip cookie mixes (like commercial sized, 5 lbs) and made those up so we never felt deprived. If anyone knows of a restaurant depot that sells mixes like that, please link! I will buy some for my siblings for nostalgia :-) [/quote]
