Making My Own: Round-up!


For some of our readers that have been with us for awhile, you’ll remember that I did a series of things that I made myself, like laundry soap, jiffy corn mix, and so forth. These all helped save money and keep us healthier!

I thought today I’d update you with the ones that I still frequently use and couldn’t live without! Click on the titles for the full original posts!


1. Granola



I’ve tried a few granola recipes and this is still my favorite. Great by itself, great in yogurt, just great!

2. Lipton Onion Packets



I bet you already have most of this on hand when you think you need to run to the store!

3. Cream of Mushroom/Chicken Soup



I really hate canned soup, blech. This takes a little more time/preparation but it’s so good!

4. Bisquick



Easy to make, easy to use!

5. Taco Seasoning



Look at these ingredients. Do you already have all these in your cupboard? Then you’ve already got taco seasoning ready to go!

6. Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix



Jiffy may be cheap, but this is still cheaper!

7. Maple Syrup



Just a few ingredients make this household staple!

8. Laundry Detergent



Been using this for well over a year. Lots of money saved here!!

9. Pizza Crust



I’ve got some dough getting ready for pizza tonight! We make this almost every week!

10. Kettle Corn



Can’t forget a little something sweet. This recipe is super simple and SOOO good!



I hope you find something new to try!
