While some people love to spend a ton of time in the kitchen cooking, I am not one of them. I'm all about cheap and easy - definitely the easy part. That being said, I found some great videos on Youtube for One-pan Dinners. Because nobody really ever wants to do a ton of dishes but we do want to look like gourmet chefs. Most of these recipes were made using a aluminum sheet pan. I personally love these types of pans and use ours a lot. I found the Winware Aluminum Sheet Pan on Amazon that is the same size that we use and it cheaper than buying it at the local stores. I really like the larger size as it is more versatile. That being said, two sheet pans is probably plenty to have for most families.
Easy one-pan or one-dish dinners are also a great cooking method to teach your kids before they move out. For us, our oldest leaves this fall and he will definitely be learning these methods along with myself.
Welcome back for another weekly install of Budget Meal Recipes! For those coming from other areas besides our Facebook page, Dave Ramsey - Budget Meal Ideas , these are great budget and time saving ideas that have been shared on the group this week. It's fun to go through and read everyone's Facebook posts from the group and see what recipes were posted. Thank you everyone for helping others save on the budget and find creative ways to create with food they already have on hand. One of these is great for a certain holiday.

Bals Lentil Cookies I hope everyone has had a great week! Here in the U.S., Sunday was Father's Day, a day known for great grilling and feeding dad his favorite foods. My husband lucked out and his sister had made his favorite dessert, peanut butter bars, for the potluck Father's Day dinner. I'm thankful for the time we get to spend with family and enjoy good food together! Small Brown Lentils Every week as I go through and find the recipes on the Facebook group I end up thinking I shouldn't be doing this around lunch time. There are so many yummy looking recipes! I'm so excited to see what other people make and try new things. My husband is absolutely loving this group as I'm finally, after almost 20 years of marriage, branching out more in the cooking area. Thank you for being there for each other, everyone! This week I noticed we seem to have a Beans and/or Rice theme in the recipe department. A great ode to Dave Ramsey, haha. ...
Many of you have probably noticed that I haven't posted for a bit. We've been on vacation at our house plus lots of other things going on! I hope everyone else has had a great two weeks as ours has been very fun and productive. For one of these trips we wound up eating on the go in the van. Definitely not our favorite way to do dinner but we needed to leave then or wait until the next day. I didn't want to spend $20-$30 hitting the drive through so I made a cheap and fast homemade lunchables to tide us over. (I'll admit I even had to put them together in the car with the pre-sliced toppings.) Right about then I realized what an absolute rip off store bought lunchables are.
