Mom on Dealz & I are trying out providing you with weekly recipes based on the sale ads for local stores. The following recipes are from Mom on Dealz and are based on the Harris Teeter sale ad for the week of 01/19/11. I’ll look at the Farm Fresh ad later today. Remember that some of the ingredients listed you may already have in your stockpile, so the cost for the meal would be less.
Let us know what you think of this new feature, please!

I love this idea! I have to say I really miss Harris Teeter and Farm Fresh! Nobody out here in CA doubles coupons! 🙁 BOO!! Way cool idea though about writing up recipes based on the deals!
Ahh, no doubles. I guess you’ll have your savings with the LONG growing season of cheap veggies and fruit. I think I’d trade my doubles for your beautiful weather, though. I’m cold!
Glad you like the idea
I did notice that the produce is a LOT better out here and pretty inexpensive too! So (with the hubby kicking and screaming lol) we eat a couple vegetarian meals a week. That seems to really help the budget. And I did find out there is one that doubles coupons max to $1 so if I had a $.75 coupon it would only double to $1. Better than a kick in the shins I suppose! lol. Hope it warms up for you!! If not come out and visit us!! 😉
Ha,ha. He’ll get used to it. My hubby wouldn’t be happy at first either.
That’s great that one store doubles. Much better than just getting the $0.75. We’ll be there next week. JK. Derrick grew up in San Diego, so he always wants to go back. I remember the parks are amazing.
