Favorite Frugal Village Recipes

**Luckybustert** · 06-11-2010, 10:21 PM

There are so many recipes posted here at Frugal Village and that's really exciting to me because I love to eat well and I love to save money! But I'm also more apt to try a new recipe if I see recommendations or reviews from others and perhaps even tips on what individuals did differently that turned out well for them. Do you look for reviews when searching for recipes? What is your favorite recipe you've found here on Frugal Village?

I always look at reviews when searching for recipes and that would be cool if we could set something like that up here.

I loved the Knock-off recipes that Niko has posted. The ottis muffins and O'Charleys soup was yummy.

There is many here that I want to try but haven't gotten around to it yet.

I always look for reviews & very rarely try something that hasn't been reviewed. My favorite recipe is Sara's Chicken Adobo, that stuff is addicting to me. Also love Yankeemom's Ham & Pineapple casserole. Lots of others too!

Don't forget we have a Village Cookbook full of tried & true recipes from your fellow Villagers. Please add your tried & true, family favorites to the bunch. Having them there makes them so much easier to find. I know it takes a little time to do that but we all appreciate having them there to choose from and bonus ...we'll shower you with compliments too, lol. !

~Crockpot Rotisserie Chicken has totally changed the way I cook a whole bird. I can't imagine going back to roasting!
I have a great blueberry cobbler recipe saved to my favorites. It's so perfect over ice cream!
And third would be YM's shrimp egg rolls recipe. I used it the first time I tried egg rolls at home and still reference it when I make them now(with my own tweaks of course!).
You're making me want to pore over the T&T cookbooks here and try some more stuff!~

So far, my favorite would be "Orzo Parmesan".
It's so good...

That does sound good! I'll have to take a look at the recipe and see if I have everything on hand to try it.

I LOVE these Frugal Granola Bars. I make them all the time. I use peanut butter instead of all of the butter.
Deliciously frugal chewy granola bars
