About Us

I am a stay at home mom with four wonderful kids. I have been married for over 10 years to my best friend. I am head over heels in love with him. He always supports my crazy "thrifty adventures". We have a lot of fun together.

I was raised on a small dairy farm. Where I learned very young, the value of hard work and how to be thrifty in all areas of life. Growing up our meals were made from scratch. Only on special occasion would we get name brand cereal, chips, or any other fancy treats. Now that I am a Mom with my own budget, the basic foods always comes first. I too make most of our meals from scratch and take pride in feeding my family a well balanced healthy diet.

I enjoy seeing how far I can make our budget stretch, and when I take the time to match sales with coupons I am able to get all those "fun & fancy" items that would other wise be out of my budget. Being thrifty has always been a way of life for me, but it has also become a real joy.

Thrifty Breakfast Pizza

I wanted to share this recipe with you.  Many of the ingredients are ones I have picked up for FREE ( eggs, bacon, biscuits, season all)  So making it was fun and THRIFTY!

Spread 6 large Grand Flaky biscuits on the bottom of a 9×13 in pan

Sprinkle 4-5 cups frozen hash browns on top of biscuits, ( thaw hash browns)  season your hash browns with salt and paper ( I use Season All)

Cook1 package of bacon,  chop up, and spread over the top.

Grate 6 oz of cheese on top in even layer.

Beat 6-8 large eggs up, then pour in even layer over the top, salt and pepper the eggs.

Bake un-covered at 350 degrees for 35-45 mins till eggs are done in the middle

Let rest  about 5 mins then enjoy!  My family loves it!
This recipe came from my Mother in law (thanks JoAnne)  She makes it with croissant rolls, and breakfast sausage.  But I changed it to use the FREE items we had on hand.

    Thanks for sharing all of your wonderful tips! Great website.
    I make a wonderful one (that I also learned from my MIL) that is very similar but it uses sliced bread. In a 13×9 pan lay down a layer of sliced bread, a layer of toppings (I used left over easter ham and some veggies I had to use up), a layer of cheese, top with another layer of sliced bread. Mix 6 large eggs and 3 cups milk with salt and pepper (I also like the Season All) plus any other spices you want. Pour over bread and ingredients. Just thought I’d share.
