This week I'm using recipes from my three favorite sources: Clean Eating Magazine, Eating Well Magazine, and Taste of Home. There is a pretty good mix of old and new recipes. I'm particularly excited to try the quinoa bowls, chicken divan and ...homemade Fritos! I really enjoy topping my chili with cheese and chips, but, of course, I'm reluctant to buy something like chips. If it can be made, then I'm going to try to make it homemade. The other homemade items are enchilada sauce and tortillas. Both of those items store easily in the freezer to make the present or future meal easier. Making extra of a meal component to store in the freezer is one way to make homemade foods a little more convenient to prepare. It will also save some money by limiting the items that are required to purchased.
