For some reason, in the last few decades, it has somehow become a must for the primary caregivers of our households to deliver a restaurant-ready meal to the table, seven nights a week. In our minds, dinner is a main protein with grains and veggies heaped on the sides, but that’s not the only way to do it. You aren’t a failure as a parent if your kids eat omelettes or leftover toasties when there isn’t the time or ingredients left to put together something else. Embrace more simplicity in your meals, and you might be surprised how cheap they become.

Don’t buy more of something new if you can use the stuff you already have. The same goes for anything that you can pick up cheaply or through swaps with friends. Here, we’re talking about eggs from a friend’s chicken coop, or even fish from the latest family fishing trip that have been sitting  n the freezer. Plan around that!
