Quick Hacks and Savings

• Rotisserie chicken is your best friend – Shred it up to use in your wrap, on top of salads, or add it to the quesadillas for extra protein all week without spending more money or time on prep.

• Freeze the rest of the ground beef you buy this week – you only need ½ a pound for the Taco Pasta, which means the extra ½ can go toward your meals next week.

• Double the quesadilla recipe if your budget allows – this recipe freezes great so you can reheat and eat next time you need a quick, filling meal.
