31 Days to Balancing Work and Home {day nineteen} : make double.

Today's tip is to double up! Whenever you make a meal that could be frozen or turned into lunches, make two! If you are in a two income family, chances are you need lunch ideas. Make sure you make enough for leftovers for the week. We tend to spend money on out to eat when we have nothing that appeals to us left in the fridge. Having enough to eat for the next few days really helps us avoid the fast food pitfall.

When you can make a meal that can be doubled for the freezer, you should! It is little to no extra work to double up on a recipe you are already making for dinner. Throw it in the freezer for day when you don't feel like making anything!
