But use caution - it will kill plants, flowers, etc. -- Username Rickyb108 Cheap Road Trip Ideas Think about taking your crockpot packed full of a couple of menus you plan ahead for use in the hotel. For the lunches just start them before you go to bed on low. My husband did this on his last business trip. It worked really well since he could do about anything he wanted during the day and still come home to a full meal already cooked. -- Username Melissae Cheap Meals About the cheapest meal that I know of is Fideo. It's kind of a Mexican spaghetti. A package in the hispanic section costs 47 cents. Fry it for a minute or so in oil or crisco, then add one 8 ounce can of tomato sauce - 25 cents- and 2 cans water. Let it boil about 7 minutes, and it's done. Kids love it! Cheese on top is good, but it isn't necessary if you can't afford it. This also goes well with pinto beans. You can cook them in the crock pot all day and then mash them and you have a great protein for about 50 cents. -- Username equtierrez These great ideas were posted in our Frugal Living forum: http://www.mommysavers.com/discussion/index.php?showforum=20 ------------------------------ Deals for Moms: Affordable costume jewelry and fashion watches available at http://www.watchnytrends.com.
