December 13, 2013 by Lisa Park + Leave a Comment

Turkey Chili

I’ve begun looking for new recipes to use up the Thanksgiving turkey I have in the freezer. I tried this 3-Bean Turkey Chili recipe and really liked it, so I thought I’d share it with you. Try out the recipe if you need to use up your Thanksgiving turkey leftovers or save it for the next time you make a turkey dinner. And this recipe goes great with these Biscuits Supreme and Perfect Corn Bread. You might also like to try making Turkey Pot Pie with your leftovers.

If food allergies and special diets are causing yo If food allergies and special diets are causing your food budget to really increase, below are 6 tips to help navigate food allergies on a budget.  1. Meal plan and cook from home
Focus on making a list of your family's favorite easy meals and plan your meals based on those. Keep it simple and make it a priority to eat at home.  2. Limit expensive replacements
While there is an abundance of options for substitutes to common food allergies, the expensive replacements increase the amount of money you spend on groceries. Use them sparingly, buy them on sale, or look for ways to buy them in bulk.  3. Price shop
Track the cost of items at multiple stores and online retailers to find the best price, then "stock up" on the items you need.  4. Find out what works for you and stick to it
Narrow down what staple foods you need and like so you don't spend a lot of money experimenting on food that doesn't work for your family.  5. Focus on the inexpensive items you can eat
Make a list of foods you can eat instead of constantly looking for alternatives of foods you can't eat. Foods that might fit in your meal plan and that are inexpensive are oats, potatoes, rice, fruit, vegetables, applesauce, seeds, and legumes.  6. Shop at cheaper stores
Most grocery stores carry specialty foods, so don't just shop at expensive specialty stores like Whole Foods.  #foodallergies #grocerybudgettips #groceryshoppingtips #howtogroceryshop #foodbudget #foodallergybudget
