I get frequent emails from this website called Food on the Table. I love their money-saving tips and how they help me find coupons in my area. The other day  I was chatting with Amanda Yates from Food on the Table and asked her to share some of her tried-and-true techniques for saving money at the grocery store this winter. I’ve tied her advice in with some of our best Family Kitchen recipes to share great tips AND great recipes you can make with the inexpensive food you buy. Now the only question is, what to do with all that money you save? (I say go take a nice warm weather vacation!)

Flavor Fresh Veggies Yourself
Avoid frozen "gourmet" veggies. The herbs and spices used on these can be added at home for less cost and, more often than not, better flavor.

Making your own juice costs half as much as buying a carton at the store? No way.
