Kaitie’s Top 5 Tips for Saving Money and Time in the kitchen

1. Buy frozen pre-cut vegetables for stir fry’s and other meals that contain a variety of chopped veggies this saves time and cuts wastage. What you don’t use can go straight back into the freezer.

2. Bulk Mince based meals out with tinned lentils this bulks out meals and works out a lot cheaper than using extra meat and honestly, you can barely tell!

3. Try a vegetarian dish each week! Pumpkin and Spinach curry is a fave in our house.

4. Shop smart! Look at weekly sales, make a meal plan around them and do your best to stick to your shopping list- personally, this is why I love online shopping, there is less temptation!

5. Make dishes with similar ingredients!

Buying in bulk normally works out cheaper and it’s easier to have multiple meals on the go at once.

The Healthy Mummy team would like to thank Kaitie for sharing her wisdom with us and showing what is possible in just a couple of hours.
