Corned Beef Reuben Sandwiches Yum!

Food, Uncategorized
I'm a huge fan of Reuben sandwiches.  It all started about 5 years ago where I had a very good one at a restaurant near my work and I started to looking for other good Reuben sandwiches. Thanks to Redemption Unlimited ladies for mentioning that corned beef is $1.49 lb at Giant this week.   I got a 5 lb brisket for under $8.  That right there is the cost of 1 sandwich at a nice restaurant here in the NOVA area.   I made this recipe for the brisket and then I made this recipe for cabbage, potatos and carrots.   Wow!  This is amazing.  My husband wants another sandwich right now.  I better go make it. I updated my version a little bit. Crockpot version Ingredients 1 5 lb corned beef…

Does anyone know of places that sell bulk food?

Food, Uncategorized
I was just reading MoneySavingMom.com's post about her shopping trip this week and purchasing Bulk food from a local store that just sells bulk food at great prices.  I'm super excited about this because in some cases it is a lot cheaper and healthier. Do you know of a store in the Washington metro area (Northern Virginia, DC, or Maryland) that sells bulk food? I did a little research and found a place in Harrisonburg, Virginia http://grandmaspantryva.com that is a couple hours away.   The prices are really good.  A great stockpiling place!  I’m curious of the cost of shipping. “Sucanat, Natural – priced per Pound” $1.69 Unrefined Sugar – (Demerara) – Priced per Pound $1.39 Occident Flour – Unbleached – Priced per Pound $0.69 Anybody purchased from them before?

Food, Harris Teeter, Shopping Trips, Uncategorized
I needed milk and I really wanted to go to Harris Teeter for the last day of super double coupon event.  Thanks to my wonderful couponizer I did have several coupons that I could use to make the trip well worth my while. Here is a neat hint in the front of the store most Harris Teeter stores will have a clearance setup.  This store had a lot of medicine but a lot of it was expired!!! Oops!! Not even sure if they are allowed to sell expired medicines.  Anyway, always check you never know what deals you might find. I don't have everything in the picture because I put all of the yogurt and milk away.  Did you stop at Harris Teeter?  What did you get? 3 - Comtrex…

How to Defrost Chicken

Food, Meal Planning, Recipes
I'm spending the day with my daughter today inside since it is snowing!  We're trying to relax but that's not easy when she wants to run around.   Right now she is napping and I'm taking a break! She wasn't interested in playing when I was preparing the crockpot for the  Slow Cooker Chicken Parmesan,  it took several attempts at distracting her in order to defrost the chicken and get all of the ingredients  into the pot.   I found a great tip on how to defrost chicken without making it rubbery. Tip: Check it out HERE! This is for one chicken breast. Put it on a piece of foil while you heat your oven to 200 degrees. When it reaches 200, turn off the heat, throw the chicken and foil in…
