Cooking With Stockpile!! Frugal Meal Idea!!

Here is another frugal meal idea that I make often. I always have these items in my stockpile.

1 box of Macaroni & Cheese
1 can of water packed Tuna
1 can of cream of chicken soup

cook the macaroni as the box says to do it , add the cheese, drained Tuna, and cream of chicken soup. Your done. We crunch of crackers and put that on top of our serving and it is really good.

The great thing about this is that it is fast and you can use any kind of creamed soup you want. Cream of mushroom, cream of broccoli, etc - you get the idea. But, this is a super cheap and easy meal. Maybe try the macaroni with a small can of can ham with the cream of broccoli. That sounds good.

Very frugal.

FreeCycle - Local Free Items

The Freecycle Network You should all join your local Freecycle group. It is an awesome thing. You can find stuff on there that you might need for free and give away stuff that you don't need to someone who does need it. Great way to organize your own home. Get rid of items that you don't need and clear out some space.

Going Camping

 

This is so strange. Cleaning out my shed and found this huge carrier case with wheels leaning up against the wall in the back corner. Pull it out and it is a Bushnell 12 Person Instant Cabin Tent!! Wow!! Not sure where it came from, brand new, But I cannot wait to go camping with this. 

Get a couple of Air Mattresses and we are all set. I have all of the camping equipment that anyone could need. 

This is going to be so much fun. Can't wait.
