[quote=Anonymous]My teenage son stayed over at a friend's house one night. Later that day he commented on that we are an ingredient house not a food to eat house. I had no idea what he was talking about. He said all of the food at his friend's house was either ready to eat or just had to be microwaved. At our house the pantry is full as is the freezer and fridge BUT almost everything has to be assembled and cooked. I guess that is how we save money. We buy in bulk and when things are on sale. I probably have 30 pounds of chicken in the deep freeze, but not a pre-made nugget to be found. I also have eggs, breadcrumbs and oil. So, I can make nuggets but it is a little more work and soooo much cheaper. Make an effort to buy ingredients, not pre-made meals. You save money because you are doing the prep work.[/quote]
