Press Release Body: Don't have the money to make delectable dishes?

Or just don't know the secrets of flavoring with spices and herbs, and making food
stretch?

The former is never right no matter what your income is.

If you have the money to buy enough food to at least feed your family then you have
enough money to make whatever you feed them enjoyable, even if it's a vegetable
dish.

Yes, with the right spices or herbs, and recipes, the children in your family will
come to love vegetables. My family has several favorite veggie dishes that our kids
like so much they want seconds. And the main secret to them are the different spices
we use.

These dishes range from ratatouille, eggplant Parmigianino, to stewed tomatoes and
stuffed zucchini (for info on these or other recipes feel free to email me at
sweetstuff245@hotmail.com).

Just as they do with vegetables; spices, herbs, and sweeteners are the secrets to
making all foods delicious.

These three food miracle workers can be relatively inexpensive if you know where to
look.

In most health food stores (and in select supermarkets in growing numbers) there is
a wondrous invention called a BULK section.

I'm sure everyone knows what this is, but in case you don't I'll explain:

It's a section of a store that has all types of different flours, beans, cereals,
spices, herbs, and much more.

Each of which are in separate containers or large plastic buckets with a scoop, that
allows you to buy as much or as little as you want of whatever spices or other food
they carry.

The store provides you with bags and twist ties, for your convenience.

Spices are an excellent example of how cheap it can be to shop in bulk. Most small
jars of spices or herbs like basil, oregano, thyme, etc... Cost anywhere from two
dollars a bottle to four ninety nine (which is technically five dollars a bottle).
In a bulk section you can buy these same spices, getting twice as much (or more) for
less than a dollar or a little over.

Talk about savings! Herbs and all kinds of spices are much cheaper bought this way
than paying the extravagant prices you are charged for a pre packaged bottle of the
same spices.

Flour and other cooking and baking necessities are also much cheaper if bought in a
bulk section

Note: buying in a bulk section does not mean you have to buy a lot of everything!
You could buy only one cup of flour in a bulk section if you wanted to or one
tablespoon of any spices or herbs.

Ideally you should shop around at whatever different stores in your area have bulk
sections, and compare prices to make sure you're getting the cheapest price.

Bring a calculator to the store and be prepared to do a little brain work to figure
it out.

Another money saving trick is to substitute ground turkey for ground beef in
recipes. Here you might prefer the taste of beef but in terms of the money you save
it will certainly taste heavenly to your budget.

You can spice up bland omelets, scrambled eggs, soups, meat patties and more with
the correct spices, and herbs.

Here is a recipe for deliciously spicy eggs, that won't dent your wallet:

For scrambled eggs try using 1/4 teaspoon thyme and pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon salt
and oregano, and 3 eggs. Mix the eggs, spices, and herbs together in a bowl.

Heat a frying pan on medium heat until very hot, and then add your oil (preferably
olive oil or coconut oil) to the pan. Wait a few seconds until the oil starts to
smoke, then pour the eggs from your bowl into the pan.

Have a fork in your hand ready to scramble the eggs with, because they'll start
cooking instantly. Scramble the eggs for 30 seconds to a minute. Then use a spatula
to scoop them out onto a plate.

Do yourself a favor and follow these tips to start saving money today.
