Frugal Cooking Tip Of The Week

FREEZE,FREEZE,FREEZE

No matter how careful we plan, there seems to always be leftover veggies after we eat. I would normally have thrown them away,no more. I keep a ziploc bag in the freezer and put all extra veggies in the bag. When the bag gets full, I take it out and make a hearty vegetable soup. Add veggies, 2 cups beef stock, and 4 cups water,and a can of tomato soup,salt and pepper to taste. You can also use chicken stock if you have that on hand.

Leftover meat? Chop it up and use in omelets, salads, or soups!

Make your own stock or broth using trimming's from meat. Remember to leave room for expansion when freezing.
