In the back of the pantry, you might find a couple of cans of evaporated milk that are close to expiring. It typically lasts about a year unopened in the pantry and once opened and refrigerated, you have about a week to use it. It&#8217;s wonderful when used in mashed or scalloped potatoes, coffee or tea, scrambled eggs, pies or French toast, to a name few.
Here are ...]]></description>

Making rice on the stovetop can be tricky. You have to watch it, or it can boil over, get mushy or burn. You can use the index-finger method of measuring for both rice cookers and traditional rice cooked on the stovetop. You simply add the amount of rice you want to cook, keeping in mind that 1 cup of uncooked rice equals 3 cups cooked rice. Slowly add ...]]></description>

Once the colder weather hits, the comfort-food cravings start. Soup and pasta dishes fit the bill. The following recipes are easy to make and will be a nice change of pace from your standard meal rotation. They&#8217;re familiar home-style meals with a twist. Two are quick recipes you can whip together when you&#8217;re short on time. The other two require an hour of cooking time, but you don&#8217;t ...]]></description>

Give flexitarianism (semi-vegetarianism) a try. Once a week, incorporate a meatless dish into your meal rotation. You&#8217;ll be surprised that you don&#8217;t miss the meat in the following recipes even when these dishes typically include it as a key ingredient. It&#8217;s good for your budget, too. 
Mushroom-Barley Soup
2 onions
2 stalks of celery
2 to 4 cloves of garlic
1 pound fresh mushrooms
2 carrots
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 cup barley
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 ...]]></description>

It&#8217;s pumpkin season, and many people have the tradition of visiting the pumpkin patch. Whether selecting the perfect pumpkin for carving jack-o&#8217;-lanterns or decorating them uncarved, selecting one is simple. Look for a pumpkin that has good weight, a stem that isn&#8217;t cut too short to ensure that it&#8217;s not decaying, stands well for display, and doesn&#8217;t show any visible softness or bruises. 
Although all varieties can be ...]]></description>

Sour cream is one of those products that tends to expire before you use it up, so I&#8217;m sharing a few easy recipes that call for up to 2 cups of sour cream. Keep them handy, and choose one depending on how much sour cream you have left. 
Sprite Biscuits
1 cups regular Sprite
8 ounces sour cream
4 cups Bisquick
Preheat oven to 400 F. Mix Sprite and sour cream. ...]]></description>

Invite friends over, and have a football party. It&#8217;s a frugal, fun night you can spend at home. Food and football go hand in hand. Finger foods work well, but a hot mug of chili will satisfy energetic sports fans. You can set it up in a slow cooker and plug it in nearby, so no one has to go to another room and miss a thing during ...]]></description>

Autumn brings many requests for syrup recipes. It&#8217;s the season for heartier breakfasts &#8212; pancakes, waffles and French toast &#8212; that can curb hunger until lunchtime. These syrups are quick and easy to make ahead over the weekend to use for the upcoming busy week. They&#8217;re more economical than real maple syrup, too. Your homemade syrup will turn ordinary breakfasts into mornings your family will look forward to. ...]]></description>

Don&#8217;t toss out overripe bananas. You can mash and freeze them or freeze with the peels still on. Once thawed, simply cut off an end and squeeze the banana out of the peel. Many people prefer using them right away. They&#8217;re delicious in muffins, bread, smoothies, pancakes, cookies, pudding, frozen yogurt and banana pops, cakes or simply spread on sandwiches with peanut butter. My community forums (www.frugalvillage.com/forums) have ...]]></description>
