budgeting/meal planning

This week in advanced cooking we learned about budgeting and meal planning. In a more simple way we learned how to save money on buying food and learned how to plan meals better. First we made a shopping list to help us reduce waste and not to spend extra money on things we don’t need. Then we learned we could turn something small and cheap into something more nice and seem more expensive. I saw u could take ordinary things and turn them into something more and make homemade meals cause homemade v purchased is more cheap. Some ways to save money that i learned was use some more leftovers don’t throw things away eat them the next day for lunch or something. Sometimes the brand affects the price of things sometimes it’s better to go for the off brands, and finally one last thing is the store u use might price things different than another store so watch out for that. Those are some things I learned in cooking this week. 

While we were learning all this we also cooked something we cooked a stir fry with ramen noodles and it was very good. We turned something so small and that wouldn’t feel u up very well and also very cheap to something that could cost a lot of money. The overall flavor was amazing i couldn’t even tell u used noodles. We also made homemade chipotle which was the best and tasted better than all of them the smell smelled just like the restaurant it tasted just like it i learned that u could make something out of anything.
