Triple Coupons, Kroger deals, and Cook to Freeze!

Score! Triple coupons are here once again at Harris Teeter. I scored some great deals, including several freebies last night on a quick trip there. Pictures and details to come soon. I also scored some great deals at Kroger last night as well, great manager specials and 10 for 10 sales. I love getting stocked up on meat that I find on manager special. So now, it is time for the work of cooking and freezing. With me starting grad school and being gone last a couple nights a week plus just being so busy, I am seeing now more than ever how important cooking and freezing is for me. For both convenience and health, not to mention a money saver so I don't quick grab something out.

On the list for this weekend (we'll see how much gets done):

~batch of granola
~cranberry pumpkin muffins
~turkey meatballs
~spaghetti (I found this freezes amazingly, great for small containers for lunches!)
~chicken stuff casserole (making 2 small batches of this)
~grilling chicken breasts to cut up and freeze
~BBQ pork loin in crock pot (but am using this tonight, impromptu dinner party!).

I'll update as I make stuff and post pictures! Last weekend I did another batch of my vegetarian chili since I was getting low and that has been great to have stocked back up this week!
