In the past I showed people not only how to coupon but how to use coupons to buy ingredients to create a fantastic meal.
So I think it’s time for me to bring that back. And what better time than RIGHT NOW. I think it’s perfect for the holidays and a great way to bring in the new year.
My goal is to teach every cook out there how to plan ahead and make meal prep as easy as possible and cost efficient. Not to mention HEALTHY and DELICIOUS!

Target usually has great prices for food and ALDI prices are AMAZING!!!!
