Coworker told me to stop using store-bought stock for my budget meals
At a potluck last fall, my coworker Susan mentioned that I was wasting money on those tetra packs of chicken stock. I didn't believe her at first because a $2 box seemed cheap. But she showed me how a single chicken carcass can make 4 quarts of stock for basically nothing. I tried her method using veggie scraps and a leftover rotisserie chicken. Now I save about $8 a month just on stock, and the flavor is way better. Has anyone else found a kitchen shortcut that actually saved more than you expected?

Right? Plus you get the meat for meals too. Smart move.
