#BUDGET BYTES LUNCH HOW TO#
So it's kind of been my mission for the past 10 years to teach people how to cook and how to do it on a budget, and do it well so that they can be a little bit more financially independent and have control over their diet and their budget. And I realized a lot of other people out there also needed that information. So I knew I had to make something that was going to be good for me and still fit in a budget. And the only part of my budget I had left that had any sort of wiggle room was my food.Īnd I had just graduated with a degree in nutritional science. And I had cut out all discretionary spending out of my budget already. So I run a food blog that focuses mainly on cooking, making really delicious, well-balanced meals on a small budget.Īnd I started this blog 10 years ago, 10-plus years ago, because I was in a really sticky financial situation myself. So tell our audience who may not know about you a little bit about what you do, who you are, et cetera. I know all of my blogger friends by their blog name, too. And when you arrived, my colleague, who is a huge fan, came in and she was like, Budget Bytes is here.Īnd I was like, I don't know that we should call Budget Bytes.

These crave-worthy one-pot meals are perfect for days when (for whatever reason) pasta just won't do.Throw on an apron, we’re turning up the heat! This week we got to chat with Beth Monel (a.k.a. Even a tasty fettuccini sometimes just doesn't do the trick. While I love a good simple-to-make pasta dish just as much as the next mom, my kids can only handle so many bowls of spaghetti before they claim they no longer "like" it.
Maybe we should call it "one cooking surface" meals. Plus, just because they're often called "one-pot" meals, doesn't mean you can't switch it up and utilize one skillet or one pan instead. But, if you just want a healthy, well-rounded dish that doesn't require 15 pots and pans, several of theses dishes are made using only meat and veggies. Some of the one-pot meals below are absolutely riffs of your favorite pasta dishes with a few potatoes or rice thrown in for good measure. Most of the go-to recipes I know of feature noodles as the main ingredient, but these one-pot meals without pasta are easy to throw together even if you're fresh out of gnocchi. For those times when you just want to cook a delicious dinner without having to scrub a plethora of pots afterward, one-pot meals are totally life-giving.
