There are time savers and tips that make eating clean convenient and cheap. Here are my shortcuts, what are yours?
1. Can your own food. Soups, fruits, meat, vegetables, jams, sauces, even broth.
2. Freeze a couple of casseroles.
3. Prep veggies when you get home from shopping. They go into my fridge diced and ready to be used.
4. Have a standard "meat mix" in the freezer. We cook the ground meat with veggies and seasoning and freeze it for later use.
5. When celery, peppers, or onion are on sale I buy in bulk, dice it, and freeze in snack sized baggies. It's handy for soups.

I cook a whole chicken at least once a week. It's good for at least 2 meals and I use the bones for stock.0

I cook boneless skinless chicken breasts on the weekend in the slow cooker and shread them. I divide them in meal portions and add different flavors (spices, vingerettes, etc) I freeze them and have something ready when in a hurry. I also pack them in my lunches.0

Mason Jar Salads/Meals...I just started getting into this and love it. I get home late from work...and tonight, I will sit down to taco salad, fresh and I know exactly what went into it. So much info on this subject...you just can't run out of ideas.
Thanks, great ideas everyone!
Tomorrow, I am making up a batch of chicken taco meat in the crock pot...flavorful and easy.
Using fresh salsa for liquid.
