We've planted tomatoes this year and I think the garden will pay for itself!FoodontheTablehttp://www.foodonthetable.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-264294700715447531.post-46161599190169756992011-03-04T00:57:34.243-08:002011-03-04T00:57:34.243-08:00megwrites, I wish I could use lots of flaxseed.

It gives me lots of uncomfortable gas, which I attribute to my little c-diff/crazy strong antibiotic experience (which destroyed all my good gut flora and forever changed my digestion). TMI?<br /><br />Prudent Homemaker, I WISH I had a garden. Someday. Thanks for the tip on the swiss chard. I also buy black beans, rolled oats, lentils, and quite a few other thinks in bulk. Creates less packaging waste too!Betsy Escandonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13598482569526345086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-264294700715447531.post-60688789250722517512011-03-04T00:51:58.288-08:002011-03-04T00:51:58.288-08:00We buy our black beans, rolled oats,lentils, canne...We buy our black beans, rolled oats,lentils, canned tomatoes and powdered milk in bulk to save even more. I cook 4 cups of oats for breakfast and it costs me .18 to feed 7 people (.25 for all of us if you add salt and bulk-bought brown sugar).<br /><br />Just coming to your blog for the first time today, so I don't know if you have a garden, but swiss schard is a great alternative to kale (it tastes better and smells better, too) and will grow even when it is 15º outside.The Prudent Homemakerhttp://www.theprudenthomemaker.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-264294700715447531.post-30235162191896790512011-03-03T22:38:29.592-08:002011-03-03T22:38:29.592-08:00I love using flaxseed.

Such an easy way to make food healthier.megwriteshttp://www.megwrites.comnoreply@blogger.com
