(1) Buy whole chickens and cut it up.You'll save 30 ~ 40 percent
over pre-cut chicken.
(2) For beef and pork always buy the family pack. Again about a 15%
savings. (3) Pasta !!! Cheap and really versitile. Always have lots on
hand. Lasagna can be especially good. Make a big one, cut it into
meal size individual portions and freeze them.
(4) Rice !!!Again cheap and you can do a lot with it. Take 2 cups
of rice steam, when done scramble 3 eggs, throw in some green onions
and any left over chicken scraps (when butchering a chicken there's
always little bits and pieces kicking aroud), add the rice, some soy
sauce and fry it on up.
(5) Stir fries.Lots of inexpensive veggies and some meat.
For 4 and 5 you don't need a wok just a big fry pan. A wok is nice
but not really needed.
(6) Always have something like Kraft Dinner, etc. on hand for those
nights you really don't fell like cooking for yourself. As a bachelor
or bachelorette sometimes it's a real drag to cook but for health
reasons you should eat something.
(7) A microwave is a must.You can pick up a little one for no more
than $80 dollars.They really help for defrosting and heating
leftovers
