Be Efficient & Reuse

Any leftover meat you may have cooked up can be used the next day for lunch or dinner. Don't waste the food you bought, instead, get creative.

Buy In Bulk

It’s smarter to buy meat and seasonings in bulk to save money. Buying in bulk also limits the amount of trips you need to make to the grocery store!

Stock Up

It’s a good idea to stock up your pantry with soup, pasta, or chili beans. This way, you will never go hungry if dinner plans with friends change, or if you’re extra hungry one night.

Portion, Please

Nancy suggests to portion out your meat and freeze it in individual plastic bags. Remember to label your bags, so you know what to take out of the freezer for your next meal!
