Fast, easy and cheap…I like it!

I’ll have to try the Creamy Shrimp and Mushroom pasta, that looks so good! I tend to buy shrimp in the big frozen bags at Costco because it’s pretty cheap.

Yes yes yes! Katie it can be done on the cheap- it just takes alot of planning. I love this post with your great ideas. I have a secret too- I hate cooking too- at least the day to day stuff. I have picky eaters, non-foodies in my family an it drives me crazy. I made a nice salad last night with dinner and got wrinkled noses-people would kill for this stuff and I get WRINKLED noses. Ugh! Someday they will appreciate me- at least that is what I keep telling myself.

Yeah! There’s another cooking-challenged food blogger out there! I have been know for “Avoiding Supper” and faking my baking. Tonight I was in need of a “menu intervention” and you inspired me to get out and cook, or at least get to the grocery store!

Great post, Katie. Your food vulnerability is nice, and I always love hearing/reading what posts/recipes are the blogger’s favorites. Thanks so much for sharing.

I found myself nodding as I read this and thinking, yeh, ME TOO! One of the main reasons why I cook is because I can’t justifying spending money on convenience foods or eating out.

It’s funny that there’s an assumption that food blogger = great cook. I’m food blogger = ok-but-it-goes-a-bit-wrong sometimes cook…

Loving your simple recipes by the way!
