| When ground beef, lamb, veal or pork ( or all) are on sale, I make meatballs. I do this is two stages. Very small ones for soups, Med for Stroganoff, larger for spaghetti. I make about 50 total. I bake then til they are done. Cool them and freeze for a later date. One thing I can't do without is a freezer. When my children were small I didn't have one. Now that I am older I bought a small chest freezer and keep it stocked all the time. I cook in larger batches and find that I save alot of money by doing this. Some weeks I don't buy meat at all and just use what I have in the freezer. I cook from scratch, we don't eat processed food, I make my own smoothie each week, which last the whole week. I bake fruit desserts. Our favorite is baked sliced apples with dried cranberries and a crumble top. This is made without sugar and the cranberries make it sweet enough. Since its hard to get fresh fruit in the winter, we eat oranges, pears and apples.
We have 3 adults in the family with 2 with hearty appetites. Once a week we eat out at a local diner. I set the table everynight, we all eat together, I lite a candle and we enjoy. |
