[quote=Anonymous]Sometimes Greek yogurt, fruit, and scrambled eggs can be dinner. My kids love "breakfast for dinner." Pancakes, bacon and fruit. Eggs, yogurt and fruit. French toast. Oatmeal. Heck, sometimes it's a bowl of Cheerios and sliced bananas. We drastically cut back meat years ago, and we don't miss it. We rarely eat steak or beef. Taco Tuesday is a thing. Tacos are easy. Make rice and beans on the side. Make pizza at home with a fresh crust and your own toppings. We just decided to take the family to Europe next summer, so I'm packing my coffee and lunch from now on to see what I can save ($4/coffee and donut; $10/sandwich and cookie = $$$). We still do carry out pizza most weeks. Lastly, here's my biggest savings: we don't have a lawn service or cleaning service. If you hate to cook, then think about mowing your own lawn, cleaning your own house, and splurging on takeout. [/quote]
