This blog is related to the last blog on Dollar Tree (DT) meals. This cuts waste and money. However, the concept can be used for any budget regardless of where you buy your food. We buy our rice, flour and oatmeal in.bulk at costco.

- Beans and rice : 1/2 cup rice .25, 1 cup of beans .33 ( reserve 1 cup for tomrrow._ add a can of diced tomatoes and spices.. 1.83. Note: tomatoes are cheaper at other stores. DT has had them for 50 and they were organic.
