Are convenience foods ruining your budget and robbing you of your hard earned cash?  Fight back with these great recipes.  Create your own convenience foods, and pocket monstrous savings in the process.  Begin by substituting your Homemade Granola for expensive Zowie Wowie Sugar Puffs.  Then move on to more ambitious projects like Biscuit Mix, Flavored Rice, Pudding, TVP & Bean Burrito Mix and others.  You will be amazed at how many items you can make at home in your own kitchen, instead of buying their over priced cardboard counterparts at the Market.  Once you start:  better flavor, ease of use, increased variety and significant savings will keep you coming back for more of your own healthful homemade convenience foods.

    I’m so happy to find these great convenience foods! Especially the tortillas! My daughter loves them with everything and they are $4 for a 10 pack here, this will get her favorite treat on the menu much more often. Thank you!!!!

  6. Isabela Says:

    I don’t particularly want to save money, but I am very conscious about what gets into the foods I feed my family. I don’t buy convenience foods because of the scary list of ingredients. These recipes are a lifesaver. Thank you so much.
