Not only do you save money, but you know exactly what you are feeding your family. Great idea!


Wonderful post. I'm so steamed over convenience foods that you can easily do at home at much less cost and with fresher seasonal veggies. I agree great idea.


Really cool idea.


I'm not into those bags, thanks for posting this.
