There are many ways to save money and still enjoy the convenience of convenience foods without giving up healthy food choices. When you make your own homemade mixes, you control what goes into them. Your wallet and your health will thank you. A friend of mine turned me onto some older recipe books (70's) that promotes making your own mixes. These are easy recipes and a lot less expensive than the store-bought alternatives.
