Makeing dinner

Well a whole bird in the oven.  Chicken of course.  Even though I have 3 turkeys in the deep freezer at this point in time.  For a whole chicken there's at least a weeks worth of meals for me here.  Now for some family's there's 2 nights or lunch the next day.  It depends on the size of the bird also.  There are alot of ways to make chicken.  And it is cheap also for families.  At least around here in NY it is.  If you can pick it up on sale it is even better.  Alot of times I will get the whole chicken when it is on sale for 79 cents a pound.  And serveral of them of course.  Look for the sale ads of course and what is on sale.  Then figure what is right for your household and plan meals for 2 weeks.  See how that goes then add another 5 days to that.  That is how most of us have started out.  Now it is like the 30 day planners are a drop in the bucket to most of us also for meals.  I can laugh sometimes becuase there is always another way to cook for the household.  I have alot of rice and pasta still in the can.  Rice is a big thing with me.  And always will be of course.  So see what you can make from scratch and go from there.  Not only that it is cheaper on the grocery budget also.  Now with 8 bags of flour in my can it will go for bread, pizza, muffins, and many other things for the household.  There has been plenty of times where I have been out and I check the pie prices at the bakeries at the stores.  They want at least 7 dollars per pie up here.  When I can make it for about 3 dollars a pie from scratch at home.  Pluss I know what is in it when I make it myself.  Most of the pie recipies came from the http://www.hillbillyhousewife.com/.  Now for some of the recipies yank them off the can of the pie filling.  As I say tweek the recipie to fit your household.  Now here we go thru alot of onions and garlic also.  So that is another couple of staples in the household.  When folks say that they can feed a family for so much a month it depends on the household also.  Also 70 dollars goes along way for my place once again.  Now for munchies in the truck I go alot to the dollar stores.  It seems strange I know but, it also works.  I can also cook off of a detroit diesal also.  Seems strange and you can cook off the 18 weelers engin block.  Ok enough of the off ball things you can do. Have fun and play even harder.
