You Need a Budget

main course | October 11, 2015 | By

Food is an important part of our lifestyle. That’s why I have been trying to post as many recipes as possible in the limited time I have to dedicate to this site. This is a break from my usual recipe posts touch on another important topic in our family – our budget. Bulk cooking is our family’s solution to healthy and delicious meals during the week. It’s also easy on the budget. Bulk cooking takes some planning, time and effort, but it’s worth it!

I recently stumbled upon an app to track your budget from listening to podcasts on my commute. I have spreadsheets and lists to try and track our budget in the past, but they never worked well. This app/software is called YNAB (you  need a budget). It’s $60, and I’m a penny pincher, but this is worth it. Check it out if you need a budget. We all need a budget.

If you use the link below, you’ll save $6.
