Freeze spaghetti sauce in single serving portions. I add meat and extra seasoning to "Newman's Own" sauces (helps with charities as well).

Your ideas are welcome.

I use left overs topped with mashed potatoes and call it cottage pie, or sliced potato and abit of origano and call it The Italian Job.

I try to eat less (but eat more high quality foods) and mix in some intermittent fasting (at least two eighteen hour fasting periods a week). Saves money & I'm healthier than ever.

What high quality foods might you be referring to?

What high quality foods might you be referring to?

Things with high nutrient content, usually things I need to take time to prepare from scratch, such as fresh fruits, vegetables, eggs, butter, goat's milk, etc. - ... as opposed to pre-made, pre-packaged, processed foodstuffs.

Non-GMO foods? And where do you get goat's milk, if you don't mind me asking?

Fasting is good, gives yer guts a needed rest.

From goats silly. (Sorry, couldn't resist.)

Yes, I prefer non-GMO products ... Goat's milk seems to be in most American grocery stores I frequent - have you not found any?

Yes, and gives the digestive system a chance to expel & detox out, instead of incessantly taking in.

No, just the occasional canned goat milk, and that's a real stretch LOL!

And the great effect is felt the same day. No waiting for the reward.

Maybe this link might help you find some goat's milk.

Just baked seventh loaf of bread from 10 pounds of flour. Have enough for at least 3 or 4 more loaves. LEARN TO BAKE!

I love the crunchy heel slathered with butter hot from the oven. (I'm really not gay, I just like to cook.)

Oh man, nothing like fresh-baked bread! I've missed baking. Hopefully I'll be able to knead the dough again soon. (I could delegate the task to my mixer, but it just doesn't seem right. I've done it once or twice though.)

Ummmmm .... canned goat milk is NOT the same. I've never bought fresh goat milk commercially, but I used to keep a herd of milk goats. It's funny how much the flavor varies by breed and by what they like to browse on. I had a sweet little Nubian named Dakota that used to give the sweetest milk!

We bought our cow's milk, when we needed it, at a local dairy. Local farmers are some of the best sources for fresh products, if you live near any. Often they are hidden right in plain sight, or maybe I've just lived in the right parts of the country so far.
