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.

This recipe may not be for everyone, but if you like cooked Cauliflower you may want to try it.  My Dad taught me to make this when I was a little girl, and I have always loved it.  My kids now love it too.

    I have a similar recipe that I discovered when I was doing the Adkins diet. It’s a great, healthy substitute for mashed potatoes. Add some chopped green onion, some chives, a little crushed up bacon, and some sliced black olives, if you wish. It’s yummy!

    When my daughter was about 5 we had some “loaded” mashed potatoes in a restaurant, and she proclaimed that mine are better! I had her completely fooled back then. :-)

  • Looks Yummy and I would probably like it but was wondering…..do you think it would be good with broccoli? Love your blog and I follow you in VA!!

    looks & sounds wonderful! Thank you for the recipe.

  • We normally use cheddar cheese, but in the photos is a mexican blend ( just what I had on hand)

  • Allison

    This looks great, we love cauliflower. What kind of cheese do you use? Thanks Sarah
