Hello Cheapskaters,
Happy MOO Month! March is my favourite Cheapskating month of the year. I love learning new ways to make our own, new ways to beat supermarkets at their game, and give my family what they need and want without wasting money, time or energy.
We have a lot of new Cheapskates Club members, so welcome! We are so happy to see you and meet you. Please introduce yourself in the forum, and join the conversations.
Lastly, to celebrate MOO Month, we're having a membership sale. All new Cheapskates Club memberships are just $35 for the first year. If you're not a Cheapskates Club member, you can find out more here. And you can join here.
Happy Cheapskating,
Cath

Turn Cleaning the Pantry into a Game
Clean out the kitchen pantry but make it fun by putting together all those newly discovered foods hiding on the back shelves for unusual but delightful dishes. Have a contest with each family member creating an original recipe. The winner gets to prepare their recipe for the family to taste test.
Continue the theme by cleaning out a wardrobe, garage or linen cupboard and designate items for a mid-winter garage sale. Earmark the money earned for a family treat and you’ll get more cooperation.
Easy Wine Vinegar
Wine vinegar adds a wonderful flavour to salad dressings and casseroles and it is the easiest vinegar to make. To make a wine vinegar open a bottle of red (for red wine vinegar) or white (for white wine vinegar) wine. Cover the top of the bottle with cheesecloth and secure around the neck with a rubber band. Place the bottle in direct sunlight. In summer you'll have wine vinegar in approximately two weeks, at this time of year it takes about one month to convert. Taste after two weeks and if the vinegar is strong enough for your taste, strain and bottle it. The longer you leave it the stronger the taste will become.
Cheap Cat or Dog Brush
Finding a GOOD brush for your pet is really hard, and there are many different types you can buy, all very expensive, or not worth the money and time you spent on them. I have found an excellent brush for animals is actually a round tyre brush from the reject shop for $5-$8 depending on the store. The brush is 25 cm long, its half cushioned rubber handle and half bristle brush, looks a bit like a little toilet brush and comes in several different colours. The great thing about this brush is that it is nice and firm without being too scratchy, has the bristles all round so you don't have to try and point the brush in any particular direction, and the fur is easily vacuumed out of the brush. Another plus is when your pet gets a hold of it and chews the handle its soft enough that you don't have to worry about their teeth. A regular brush can cost upwards of $25, so a saving of about $20, and if your pet doesn't like it, it can be used for many other things.

3. Your MOOs
This week we have the first of the winning MOOs for MOO Month 2020. Congratulations go to Karen Mozsny and Susan Drummond.
MOO Pot Pourri
When your lavender plant has finished flowering, don't trim and throw away dead flowers. Get an organza bag (whenever I get one I always keep, never know when you will need one).Snip the dead flowers off the plant and crush and place them in the bag. Now you have lovely smelling potpourri. What's better it's absolutely free. This also can be used for rose petals as well. Place the bag in a drawer or on a shelf in the linen cupboard, or hang it in a wardrobe for a sweet scent
MOO Fruit Leathers
We had a huge number of mangos on our tree this year and have been freezing pulp to make fruit leathers in the dehydrator. Place baking paper on trays and spread 1 cup mango pulp thinly on top, place in dehydrator for 14-16 hours at 45 degrees (time depends on humidity) or if you don't have a dehydrator place on trays in oven on lowest setting for 4-6 hours. Cut fruit leathers into strips with paper still attached, roll up and store in airtight container for up to 10 days, freeze or vacuum pack for up to 6 months. They never last this long in our household but ensures we are still enjoying mangos in winter.
Congratulations, we hope you enjoy your Cheapskates Club membership.

Rissoles
Have you seen the price of rissoles at the butcher? About three times the price of MOOing them, and that's for a lump of meat that may or may not have some herbs and spices, or other flavouring, added, rolled in some crumbs.
Rissoles are easy to make. They honestly only take a few minutes to put together - faster than going to the butcher and waiting in line to pay for them. Best of all you can add whatever flavourings you like. We like these Herbed Honey Rissoles, from the Beef, Lamb, Pork Recipe File. They're full of flavour and cost about $5 to make 10 medium or 5 large (I use the large ones for burgers) rissoles.
Herbed Honey Rissoles
Ingredients:
500g minced beef
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons breadcrumbs (dried)
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 clove garlic, crushed or use 1 tsp from jar
1 teaspoon basil, dried
1 teaspoon tarragon, dried
1 chicken stock cube or some stock powder
2 tablespoons of sour cream
Method:
Mix all ingredients well, then cover and put into fridge and allow to combine for at least an hour. You may use fresh breadcrumbs instead of dried, or add some onion in. The mixture should feel moist, but not too moist when you shape it into log shaped rissoles. Add a little more breadcrumbs to the mixture than I have stated if you think it needs it. I just throw in to near enough (no measuring) these days with this recipe, have made them for years. Cook on moderate heat so they do not burn and cook through completely.
Next week we will be eating:
Sunday: Roast Beef
Monday: Rissoles, veggies, mash, gravy
Tuesday: Pasta Bake
Wednesday: Honey Mustard Chicken
Thursday: MOO Pizza
Friday: Muffin Surprise
Saturday: Beef & Veg Soup, crumpets
In the fruit bowl: bananas, mandarins
There are over 1,700 budget and family friendly recipes in the Cheapskates Club Recipe File, all contributed by your fellow Cheapskates, so you know they're good.

7. The $300 A Month Food Challenge
What Does Your Pantry Say About You?
I come from a long line of food stockpilers. There isn't a woman in the family who doesn't have a fully stocked pantry. My mother had the reputation of being able to feed a small army at a moment's notice and I've been told my pantry could outdo Woolworths!
So what does your pantry say about you? If I were to take a peek, would I see canisters of flours, sugars, dried fruits and other baking needs? Would I find lots of different herbs and spices, just waiting to be added to cakes or casseroles? Are there canisters of beans, lentils, couscous and popcorn? Would I be able to tell the type of cook you are - a from scratch cook or a convenience cook - by your pantry?
Over the years the contents of our pantry has changed considerably. BC (before Cheapskates) if you'd opened the pantry door you would have seen four shelves, packed full of packets, tins and jars of food.
On the bottom shelf you would have found tins of braised steak and onions, tins of soup and perhaps tinned fruit. There would have been jars of pasta sauce and Chicken Tonight or Kantong sauces. You may have found the odd can of baked beans or spaghetti too. You'd see a Tupperware bread container full of packets of pasta and sauce or instant noodles, casserole bases, packet soups and instant gravy.
The second shelf held cereals and spreads. Lots of them. Weetbix, three or four different types of muesli, Nutrigrain, Coco pops and Fruity Bix. Next to the stash of cereals the jams were lined up: apricot, raspberry, strawberry, orange marmalade and ginger marmalade. Then came peanut butter (smooth and crunchy), Vegemite, Nutella, cheese spread and a couple of different Pecks pastes. Note the brand names - in those days I did not buy generic cereals or spreads and absolutely none of them were homemade.
Third shelf was what I called my baking shelf. A packet of self-raising flour, one of plain. A canister of white sugar and another for icing sugar. Then a packet of custard powder and Gravox. Lined up down the wall were the cake mixes - chocolate, buttercake, patty cakes, cheese cake and muffins. I did a lot of home baking - it just mostly came from a packet.
Fourth and top shelf was used for storage - it didn't hold any grocery items at all, just a load of empty containers.
Today when I look at the pantry I am still in awe at just how much it has changed. Gone are most of the packets and tins. These days the tins are baked beans, tomatoes, pineapple, peaches, pears and apricots. The jars are mustards - Djon, wholegrain and hot English.
You'd be hard pressed to find a packet cake or muffin mix in there - Hannah has a couple that she uses that are stored on a shelf. Instead you'll see canisters of different flours (self-raising, plain, wholemeal, spelt, gluten, cornflour, pasta flour), polenta and sugars (white, castor, brown, raw and icing sugar). A canister of cocoa and one of desiccated coconut sit behind the big flour bins. There will be packets of noodles and pasta of various kinds.
Stacked in canisters are chickpeas, kidney beans, red and green lentils, Italian soup mix, regular soup mix and popcorn.
There are canisters of sultanas, Craisins, mixed dried fruit, glace cherries and ginger. Small jars of herbs and spices and a 750ml bottle of homemade vanilla extract. There is a big canister of rolled oats and two more with milk powder, skim and full cream. I almost forgot the white vinegar, a large 5 litre container. It's good for salad dressings and cleaning and did you know you can use a diluted white vinegar and water wash to clean vegetables?
There's a box of wheat biscuits, a canister of bran and one of ricies. Next to them are containers of MOO KFC Mix and one holding the cereal crumbs for the next batch of Shake'n'Bake. Then you'll see a jar of Vegemite, a jar of honey and a jar of MOO peanut butter. Lined up next to the spreads are a bottle of brown vinegar, a bottle of white vinegar, MOO sauces (tomato and barbecue), a small bottle of MOO kecap manis and a small bottle of soy sauce.
On the floor of my pantry is a box for potatoes and one for onions. I keep the potatoes in a hessian sack; it helps to keep them in the dark, dry and still lets the air circulate around them. There's another one for sweet potato too. You might see a couple of pumpkins waiting to be cut up. Next to that box is a 4 litre tin of olive oil and a couple of bottles of EVOO. Then there are the bulk bins for rolled oats, flours and rice.
If a Spendthrift were to look into this pantry they'd probably say there was nothing to eat. For the Cheapskate it is a mini-supermarket, chock full of all ingredients to make hundreds of meals.
So what does your pantry say about you?
