We are obsessed with our new Transformer Table! 😍

You’ve got to see this- it folds down into a sleek little console table when we aren’t using it. But when it’s time to host dinner or game night (like we did!), it expands to seat up to 12 people!

Comment “FLUFFY” for this Banana Pumpkin Muffin recipe!

For someone with a cooking instagram, I don’t enjoy cooking very much 🤣 I’d much rather spend my time & money doing literally anything else more fun haha!

Which is why I started these budget food systems to begin with- it saves me time & money. Around $100 every week to exact and last year I saved over $5,000 using guides like 👇🏼

Let’s skip the “start a side hustle” advice.🤣😆

You’re juggling enough already—kids, work, life—and the last thing you need is another thing to manage. Ain’t nobody got time to be a “boss babe” lol.

You don’t need to make more money, you can save money you already have (like $500+ a month) just by changing the way you grocery shop!

No extreme couponing. No mystery meat dinners. No sacrificing quality.

Just smart, realistic meal planning that saves your sanity, your time, and your wallet.

Our family uses those savings to travel—but even if travel’s not your thing, I’m pretty sure you wouldn’t mind a few extra thousand dollars a year for whatever lights you up:

New clothes for the kids, date nights, debt payoff, a family vacation, summer fun money!

I turned 10 years of trial-and-error into done-for-you budget meal plans:

•Healthy, simple meals
•Shopping lists ready to go
•weekly groceries pre-shopped for you in advance
•ZERO brainpower required

AND right now they’re BOGO 60% OFF for Memorial Day.

Because you deserve an easier way to save—and a summer with more yes days!

We’re calling Gulf Shores home for the week!

In 2018 we started a family bucket list with the goal of visiting all 50 states together, Alabama is our 27th state!

If you’re looking for fun and affordable travel destinations for your family I hope you’ll follow along with us while we’re here. We’re trying out lots of family friendly activities and I’ll be writing you a travel guide of everything we do on our trip.

Who’s been to Gulf Shores, Alabama? 🙋🏼‍♀️

I save my family $500 a month on groceries by using budget meal plans that are filled with “forking” frugal recipes 😉

I’m a sucker for a good pun, but in all seriousness my account blew up to half a million followers last year because my family figured out how to eat delicious dinners without breaking the bank.

My Forking Frugal Meal Plan will feed your family six nights a week and I was able to shop the groceries for around just $82 a week on average!

I pre shop all the groceries for you and the recipes are easy peasy and super family friendly

#groceryhaul #familymeals #weeknightmeals #easymeals #grocerysavings #savingmoneytips #grocerybudget #betterthantakeout #budgetmeals

Listen, I know I never stop talking about saving money on groceries…. But it’s because I see first hand how much of an impact it can make when you really stick to it.

I did the math and in the last month I only spent $747 on groceries- Thirty two days worth of meals to feed a family of five.

In comparison the average American family of 5 spent nearly $1300 on the same thirty two days worth of groceries. That’s $551 dollars more than us. 😳

That same average American family also spent around $500 eating out on top of their grocery bill.

You guys. 🤯

If you locked into my systems for just seven weeks, you could save over $1500 simply by eating budget meals at home. That’s it.

Imagine all the summer fun your family could have with that extra money!!

My kids love protein bars- but my bank account doesn’t 😂🤣

I’ve been sharing my homemade alternative recipes and this one is a must!

Lets compare:
❌ Store bought: $1.60 per bar.

✅ My version: roughly $1.20 per bar

Compared to just one purchase of a box of 12 bars my version would save you almost $5! Imagine how much that adds up over time 😳 if you buy a box weekly that’s $20 in saving a month.

If you’re new here my entire account is about helping families check off boxes like: saving time in the kitchen, saving money on groceries, and eating simpler (often healthier) alternatives!

I wrote you an entire Cheap & Easy Snack Guide with over 30 recipes for yummy snacks you can make at home to help save money on groceries! Find the Etsy link in my bio!

Choc Protein Bars: (makes 18 bars)
4 scoops levels double chocolate protein
3/4C almond flour
3/4c maple syrup
2 cup peanut butter
4 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
6 tbsp cocoa powder
1/2 tsp salt

1.Mix together
2.Press into an 9x13 & refrigerate
3.Cut into 18 bars- store in airtight container in fridge
