Frugal Friday – Meat Stretching Meals

June 13, 2008 by Linda @ Linda's Lunacy 1 Comment

Ever since D was diagnosed with diabetes, I have struggled with how much meat we use for each meal. D is a big meat eater, as are the kids. Me not so much. Being big meat eaters doesn’t fit so well with frugal meals.

But I have finally found a solution!

Now when I make a casserole I don’t double up on the meat, I use a smaller amount, but serve D extra meat. For example, if I’m making a chicken casserole, I use about 2cups of chicken for a 13 x9 inch pan. I serve D a chicken leg quarter, and use the casserole as a side dish for him.

He gets full, doesn’t carb out on the casserole, and I still get a frugal meal!

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 3:16-17 NKJV
