I usually make a big Christmas cake (2lbs fruit, 6 eggs, 2 cups flour, etc., that usually takes a good two hours to cook, problem is, there are now only two of us, and we never get through it.

It's easy to save money on peanut butter. Buy bulk, unsalted peanuts and grind in a blender. Add salt as needed.

How do you shred zucchini for bread, cake, etc.? Do you peel zucchini first? Do you shred it by hand?

| Individual Pizzas
|
|
Thrifty, tasty, and low sodium individual pizzas can be made quickly and easily. the contents are as varied as any pizza restaurant, and just about as tasty. I just use what I have at hand; left over roasted chicken or beef, for instance.

We make our own soy milk with a Soyquick machine I purchased at the Salvation Army. Soybeans can be purchased cheaply in the bulk goods section of Chamberlain's Natural Foods.

| Make Yogurt at Home
|
|
It is not hard to make your own yogurt. The most critical tool you need that you may not have would be either an instant read or a candy thermometer. The instant read is more versatile and available on the internet for about $10.

I make my own condensed creamed soups for recipes. I take 1-1/4 cup milk, 3 -4 tbs. cornstarch mixed with 1/4 cup water (or broth). Then I add about 1/2 cup chicken stock or pureed celery or mushrooms, dash of garlic powder, salt and pepper.

| Homemade Cream of Corn
|
|
I often make up my own recipe. Drain most, not all, of the liquid from a can of whole kernel corn and pour corn in blender.
