I don’t know about you but this has been one expensive summer!  Hubby and I love to take vacations during the summer and we ended up spending well over $3k staying local for our first vacation week.  Since we had so much fun we did it again!  Now we’ve been doing short day trips to the shore since hubby has off, but ouch our bank account!  Thanks to Walmart and their rollbacks dinner doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg.  (That’s only when we eat out! ;-))  We actually spent most of the money eating out and obviously hotels.  Simple dinners aren’t so easy to do when you’re out on vacation.  We save the budget meals for home and splurge while we’re out.   Walmart is especially helpful on the 1st and 15th of the month when your waiting for you paycheck!  Our summer meals are our absolute favorite.  It’s always easy to make low budget meals and budget recipes on the grill too!

While our family favorites include spaghetti with meatballs, lasagna, stuffed shells, and anything other traditional Italian meal you’d make with sauce, we have many other uses for sauce too!  One might think this idea is actually brilliant.  My daughter is super picky with food that she eats so I figured we’d switch up our ordinary grilled cheese sandwich and add some Heinz Classico Family Favorites Traditional Sauce.   The flavor the sauce gives to the grilled cheese is incredible!  It’s like a pizza, with just a few ingredients!

Have you ever tried empanadas?  I LOVE them, but making them.. not so much.  I love all the delicious fillings in an empanada too but always wish it was a little heartier.  I’m very picky about olives too.  I actually didn’t like olives until recently so the fact that I love black olives now is kind of insane.

Since my daughter’s FPIES diagnosis we’ve tried a slew of different foods and one of her favorite proteins are pork.  She could eat bacon, ribs, and chops all day if I let her!  Due to her limited diet we always kept things pretty simple and even after her ever expanding list of safe foods we’ve actually now just started focusing on the quantity she actually eats rather than introduce more foods.  She’s has quite the list now compared to only eating banana and strawberries just last summer.
