Hello to all, on this misty and cold, North Florida day. I hope your house is in order and doing well. I have been really busy today so I thought I would do a shorter post for today.
Everyone may already know this food tip, but here it comes, anyway.
I am a bulk buyer when I can, on my meats to freeze or can, as I get a better price than paying a big price for a small package of meat. I keep Walmart zipper, freezer bags, and wax paper in stock at my house.
This package of sausage was $6.00 in cost but I pattied out 16 thick sausage patties and put a 1/2 of a piece of wax paper between each patty. Then I stacked most of the piles of patties by three.
I also keep the cheap zip-lock sandwich baggies in stock. As you can see in the photo. I almost zip up the bag and then I leave a part unzipped to squeeze all the air out of the bags and then finish zipping the bag closed.
All the sandwich bags are then put into one large zip-lock bag after labeling and dating the gallon sized zip-lock bag. I used to buy the most expensive freezer bags until I noticed that preppers were using Walmart’s zip-lock baggies, and they do know how to store food.
So I save money on the bags and buying meat in larger packages and taking a few minutes to portion it out and wrap it up for the freezer If I happen to bake up some biscuits, some of those go into the freezer also.
So this is a time saver for me, and I am able to have the best and freshest food possible.
I also make up my own biscuits and gravy–egg and cheese mc- muffin- steak biscuit-Chicken biscuit and you could go on and on, but I will stop here.
I do hope that these tips will be of a help for some of your house-holds, to have the best food for your family and to be thrifty in the grocery stores. And I save tons on fast food places as I hardly ever go to any of them, when I can make it myself. All it takes is a little planning ahead.
I hope that you stay awhile and browse through some recipes while you are here. I will post on Thur-Sat and Tuesday, so do come back to see me if you will. Thanks for the visit today. Connie B.
