$10 Tuesday | Breakfast edition

You know my goal is $10 or less,
What if I told you breakfast for under $2?!? YUPPPPPP!

Friends, get on my level.
That's cheaper than stopping at the gas station, running through fast food and 100x healthier! Let me share with you one of my favorite breakfast meals!

Overnight Oats & Eggs
Super simple, super easy, budget win.

Now let's break it down.
Oatmeal -- $2.29
Blueberries -- $2.29
Almond Milk -- $1.99
Eggs -- .88
Mushrooms -- 1.89
________________________
Total spent = $6.57

But wait, that's before breaking it down by the number of days you can use it for. This is over a weeks worth of breakfast y'all.
One tub of oatmeal can last me 2+ weeks! Eggs, you have plenty for 6 days, etc. So let me show you my best guess.

Oatmeal -- $2.29 / 14 = .16

Blueberries -- $2.29 / 4 = .57

Almond Milk -- $1.99 / 7 = .28

Eggs -- .88 / 6 = .15

Mushrooms -- 1.89 / 5 = .38

__________________________

Total for one meal = $1.54

Mind.Blown

But, you want to get wild & mix it up a little?
Add in some all natural sweetener for your oatmeal (honey or pure maple syrup).
Don't like blueberries? Go without. Instead have a banana because they are CHEAPPPP fruit.

Don't like mushrooms, that's ok choose your favorite veggies to saute up with them.
Don't like your eggs over easy; scramble those puppies.

The eggs aren't any fancy recipe, but let me share my overnight oats here. && I love prepping 3-4 jars ahead of time and save money. You can prep eggs ahead too! So breakfast will be super simple and you can have ready to go.

Growing a Healthy Marriage

If you've been following my weekly marriage posts, then you've seen my top tips. Truthfully it doesn't get more basic than that. A good marriage doesn't happen by chance. It happens because TWO people are willing to fight for each other. Everyday they choose each other. && everyday your marriage can get better. I look back on the day I married my husband and never thought I could love him more, but here I am today with a heart so full. Each day that loves grows. Some days I want to punch him in the throat. Some days I cry. Some days we struggle. But through it all, we walk together for each other. We've been through good, bad and ugly. We've had our fair share of arguments and disagreements (and i'm sure we have plenty more to come). At the end of the day I remember its him and I & I make a decision to choose us. If you want to work on growing your relationship it starts with YOU! When you can fully love yourself, the love you have to give ...

$10 Tuesday | Beer Butt Chicken

Weird, right?!? It sounds so gross but y'all it tastes so good. This is one of my summer favorites but now Ill grill it or bake it to help me prep food for the week. It makes the chicken so juicy and not dry one bit! Ingredients: Whole Small Chicken: varies $5 to $7 A can of Bush Light: .63 cents 2 Tablespoons real butter: .05 Mrs. Dash Seasoning: $ 2.62 (optional) Total: 7.68 (or 10.30 with the Mrs Dash) Directions Before preparing the chicken, open the package then take the bag out of the chicken. (That little package has the gizzards, neck and liver? in it. I don't eat those things so I just throw them out). With an empty chicken, grab a can of beer. My dad says the rule is to take a big drink, but I'm not a beer fan so instead of drinking it, I pour a little bit into a bowl and set aside. Your beer should still be 3/4 of the way full. If you are baking the chicken, then you adjust your racks in our oven to fit the chicken if its standing. You put the beer in the...
