I have 3 boys who already eat a lot. I've found a few ways to "stretch" foods to help with our grocery bill.

I've been experimenting lately with scrambled eggs, not wanting to serve them in the same way, every time. By adding more foods into my eggs, it's my way of stretching these dishes. Here's a few of my varieties, so far:
* first saute in a small amount of olive oil, 1/2 of a bell pepper (cut in strips) till limp. Then pour in my beaten eggs (already mixed with about 1/4 c. milk). Then put in 1 pkg. of Canadian bacon (that I'd already diced up). Stir & cook till eggs are set, top with shredded cheese, turn off heat.
* I've since tried chopped fresh broccoli, chopped fresh tomatoes (drain well) & Canadian bacon (we didn't care for this variety as well, but someone else might.)
* Sauteed bell pepper, leftover taco meat & cheese. I really liked this but hubby didn't (he ate it anyway, lol).
Please don't give animals chicken bones, or any bird bones. They are liable to splinter.
