Make your own minnie corn dogs less than $2 # The mommy

OK so my son and my bf love faster farms Minni corn dogs. Which i used to buy every month.  1 box of Minni corn dogs are $5.99 or $6.99 depending on the store you buy it. They are really great but the last time i tried it somehow it made me feel like if there was something wrong with it and i couldn't finish my serving.
Now I'm trying to come out with ideas to reduce my bill when i go grocery shopping. It's only 3 of us and one baby on the way and sometimes i end up spending close to $300 a month wow! i know.
So my plan is to make delicious meals in a budget. I want to be able to spend $30 a week when i go grocery shopping. Now I'm barely starting this project so i will have a new post with pics and recipes once i accomplish my goal. Meanwhile I'm giving you this recipe.


MINNIE CORN DOGS
Items you need

  1.  1 cup of flower
  2.  1 table spoon of pepper
  3.  1/2 table spoon of Salt
  4. 1 1/2 table spoon of sugar
  5. 1 pinch tiny amount of mustard
  6. 1/2 table spoon of baking soda
  7. 1 egg
  8. 1/2 cup of milk
  9. Winnie's/ your choice, chicken, turkey if you want it to be healthier


MIX ALL THE INGREDIENTS TOGETHER UNTIL U GET A CREAMY PASTE



I had all the ingredients so my cost for this was only $.99c and i made 30 Minni corn dogs . so i save $6.00 and they were really delicious and fresh. My Plan was to make them and freeze them but i really love them so much that i had to give it to my son and bf and they loved them too. But now i know how to make them and i could freeze them if i want to or served them right away and I'm saving money. If you are in the journey of saving money, spending less on your grocery list i suggest for you to start stacking up on condiments and flower, corn starch, pancake mix. With this items you can make a lot of great food and desserts, that i will be posting them later on.

REDUCE CELLULITE APPEARANCE-DIY

Easy to make and cheaper than buying it at a store. Now let me just tell you this  will not completely remove all your cellulite but it will reduce the appearance by 60%.   I would suggest do this diy and also work out  and drink lots of water, don't eat too much junk food and you can definitely see your cellulite disappear 100%

THINGS YOU NEED

I hot glue ribbon around it again, just to make it
look cute or you can also add it into a homemade basket that i will post about it later on.
  1. INSTANT COFFEE
  2. BROWN SUGAR
  3. OLIVE OIL
  4. OPTIONAL/ROSEMARY HERBS
Mix it all in a container then put it in a jar container to store it. 

APPLICATION
  • Put this mix into desired areas and rub it into circular motions for about 5-10 mins. It's a little messy so i would suggest do this in the bath
  • Now you have the option to take a shower right after or if you want faster results, take surround wrap and wrap it around into the areas that you applied the coffee mix and leave it for 15mins to 30 mins  then take a shower.
WHY IT WORKS
The caffeine in the coffee will help with the blood flow to the area, diminishing the built-up cellulite. The coffee will be deposited into your skin and will reduce the swollen fatty tissue that creates cellulite appearance. I also suggest  rosemary essential oils into your base oil since these oils help to reduce fluid retention. This kind of vigorous massage has been proved to improve the appearance of cellulite.

Make your own Body & Face Exfoliation & bath salts

Posted by Unknown on 11:14 AM in , , , ,
Ok this is really to make and you will save money so it's perfect for me.
You can buy a jar of bath salts probably for like $10 or more same thing for face and body exfoliation's. So here it is my cheap way to make it and you can also turn it into a basket if you wish and give it your personal touch and give it as a gift to someone that you know will love this. like your friends or your mother. :-)

THINGS THAT I USED

  1.  Sea salt
  2.  Food coloring
  3.  Scented oils
  4.  Coconut oil/ Olive oil
  5. ribbon/optional i wanted my jar to look cute
  6. hot glue gun/ glue for gun/optional only if you want to give it as a gift or make it prettier
  7. a jar to stored your bath salt/ in my case i used a recycle cookie jar
These are things that  you have in your kitchen and if you don't just buy them and you can make a lot and it will be way cheaper.

BATH SALTS.
Really relaxing, enjoy it.

  • Get a cup of your sea salt
  • Add in 3 drops of food coloring
  • Mix it really well until color is well blended
  • Then add 2 table spoons of coconut oil or olive oil, or both if you wish
  • At last you can add your scented oil for relaxation
You can buy your scented oils online cheaper such as, lavender oil, tea tree oil, or whatever preference you may have. In result you make one jar of bath salt for about $2.00 and like i said you can use it for yourself or as a gift.

                                              END RESULT= RELAXATION

A woman's cold vs a man's cold

Posted by Unknown on 11:43 AM in , , , ,


              
 There are a lot of women including myself that when we go trough a cold we just simply have to deal with it and move on withour daily duties. We need to be tough and be awake early to make breakfast, get the kids ready to go to school, pack lunch for husband and manage to be on time and on top of everything. OK. so our son is in school and husband is already working and now you are home a lone with your cold what do you do now? a lot of people would say well rest and get better. Well i wish i could do that, but in my case I simply can't go back to bed I am pregnant with a cold and now I'm hungry so i have to make something to eat for myself. As soon as i get home i turn the TV on, eat and during commercials start cleaning the house. House is clean now i have to prep lunch. After lunch is ready i have to take a shower and somewhat look decent and not look like i just woke up and I'm really sick. I do believe that if you think you are sick you will never get better. The mind is very powerful so i have to make sure i make my homemade teas that are safe for me to take since I'm pregnant and i don't want to take any medicine that will affect my baby's health.
As of right now we only have one working vehicle so i wait for my husband to call me and i goto pick him up and serve him lunch. then i go to pick him up and we eat lunch together. 1 hour later you see me dropping him off at his work. luckily his work is only 5 mins. away. After dropping him off is time to pick up my son. So i head to school or check my grocery list and if i need something i quickly buy what i need and then pick up my son. Back to the house, now is time to give a snack to my son i asked him how his day was and give him some time to rest before we get started on homework. While he is resting now i have to prep dinner. So I'm prepping dinner and my son is getting out of his room every 5 mins. to ask me something  or share something on his mind. oops i forgot to feed our dog, so now i go downstairs to feed chico and give him fresh water. Now i have to check my notebook on my to do list. Dinner is prep now time to do homework with my son which it could vary it could take between 20 mins-1 hour. homework is done now time to feed my son. after he is done eating then is quality time with him. So we play a game together and that could take about 1 hour. OK now what? well it seems i have about 1 to 2 hours before husband gets out. so That's my time to relax or do my diy's, check what's new on fb, eat a snack and answer like 100 questions that my 6 year old might have.
Now is time to pick up my husband. 6pm he is out and we are ready to head home. Serve dinner, we all eat together,  asked how his day was.He plays his xbox game maybe for like 15-30 mins. then we watch a show together then is time to get shower ready for my son. now it's 8pm and I'm ready to go to bed but we manage to watch another show and head to bed. now if I'm sick  I will make my tea again and head to bed. I'm not even going to try to look sexy or cute in bed. After 3 home cook meals, driving around, cleaning the house and washed dishes 3 times a day, then i realize my day is over. I did a lot and nothing at the same time. :-/. but compare to a guy having a cold. they would pretty much wine all day and lay in bed like if it's the end of the world. And we have to pamper them just like a kid. no matter what you do they will complained about everything and probably sleep all day if they could. But us women we all have different tasks that we have to do it and we simply manage to do it. We are the stronger sex no matter what any guy says. and just having a cold it's the perfect example. Is your situation the same as mine? If not i would love to hear about it.

How to save money and make 5 meals under $6.00

Posted by Unknown on 10:31 AM in , , , ,

Ok. So first of i have to make sure i know what deals my food markets have and i only shop on the days they have discounts. Sure you might have to wait a bit longer to pay but at the end. the reward is better. which is save money specially on this tough economy. I live in bell gardens CA and i get 10 pounds of either legs or quarter legs for $4.90 or $5.90, and that's a great deal.

So with 10 pounds of chicken i took 5 pounds out and froze the other 5 pounds. The same week my 6 yr old and i had the flu so what i did i put my 5 pounds of chicken to cook in a big pan with water, celery, carrots, tomato and onion to make a delicious " caldo de pollo" or chicken soup as others call it. Once my chicken was cook i took half of the chicken and put it on another pan with mole sauce for my husband since he doesn't like caldo de pollo. and i had rice made already.
So meal

#1 Mole with rice
You can served it different ways, with a salad, or rice and beans

The next day since we were still under the weather i just added rice to my caldo de pollo and one can of tomato sauce, and then you have a new meal.
#2 Caldo de pollo
Add all the veggies u want such as potato,corn,carrots, celery

The next day since we were still under the weather i just added rice to my caldo de pollo and one can of tomato sauce, and then you have a new meal.
 #3 arroz con pollo/ Rice with chicken
You can dressed it up with cilantro on top and lemon

Now remember you still have 5 pounds of chicken in the freezer. so for another day i take the chicken out and cook my chicken again with just water, salt and pepper. My chicken is ready and then i shred my chicken and i made chicken tacos.

                                                                      
           
#4 Chicken tacos
I dressed it up with shredded lettuce mix with pinto beans,corn and sour cream and avocado on top

 I still had more chicken so i just wrap my chicken into some tortillas and stoked them in the freezer and whenever i was ready i just pop them out and fry them.
#5 Chiken taquitos
I served them by itself, dress it up with shredded lettuce and tomatoes on top add some cheese and salsa


Now you can choose to eat chicken all week and there you have it 5 meals under $6.00 of course i had the rest of the stuff, such as rice, beans, veggies, tortillas, and cheese and the stuff to make the salsa. But right here I'm just talking about the main ingredient and the most expensive some people may say. the chicken.
What i did i mix it up so one day we ate chicken and another day we ate something else like homemade tuna melt. and then chicken again and then we ate something else so you don't get tired of eating chicken everyday.

If you have any great ideas on how to save money and shop better i would love to hear about it. hope this was helpful
