EATING FROM THE PANTRY SAVES MONEY // SEEMINDYMOM PANTRY CHALLENGE JANUARY 2022
Ya’ll know I love a good pantry cooking challenge, where I look around my kitchen and make an effort to use up open packages of items, produce at it’s peak, and short-dated perishable items. Hopefully there is some inspiration or some ideas here for your household! I find that delaying my grocery trip in this manner saves us money, plus we’re being good stewards of the money we’ve already spent!

EASY EXTREME BUDGET MEALS // CHEAP & DELICIOUS MEAL IDEAS
Visit https://www.harrys.com/mindy and get a starter kit including a razor, shaving gel, and travel cover for just $3!
These budget meals turned out fantastic, flavorful, and filling with just a few simple ingredients. It seems like everybody is looking for cheap meal ideas these days, but I feel like you don’t have to sacrifice flavor or variety when you’re on a budget. You can still have palatable meals that fill the belly, and I think these are some ideas that are a little more “outside than box” than your standard beans and rice meals!

Since 2018
About Me//
If you’re looking for extraordinary, you’ve come to the wrong place. I’m just a regular ole’ gal in the middle of America, follower of Christ, wife to Daniel, and mom to three delightful children: Ruthie, McKenna, and Brick. In 2018, Daniel and I packed up our family and moved across the state to Tulsa. I decided to take a brief hiatus from my teaching career and start a YouTube channel as a new hobby and creative outlet. My “brief hiatus” became indefinite as the channel grew, and I knew where God was calling me: to make helpful content that is kind, positive, and realistic.
