HollyElise,

I assume, with measurements like you've got in these recipes, that you're planning on eating on them for a few days in the week. You know, that's really an awesome idea; it would cut down on the food bill if enough was made to have maybe 2-3 meals during the week, becoming creative in how each of those meals was made (i.e. plain soup, bread, salad for one; then, perhaps, thicken the soup and serve it over a baked potato and top with some cheese of some kind for another; the salad could perhaps be served in pocket bread with some kind of protein, like chicken strips or what-not, and have some low-fat dressing put over it for yet another meal.

I'll have to try this idea when I make out my next grocery list (at the beginning of next month). That would definitely help save money. My daughter, Susan, is really picky, but it would not only save on the food bill, but also probably on calories, as well, if I'm really careful. :-D
