Cheap and Easy Recipes

I like to keep my freezer stocked with several different types of meat. When a particular type or cut goes on sale at the lowest price point,  I usually snag enough to last a few months. If you track sale cycles then you know when it’s time to stock up. Luckily, pork tenderloin went on sale at Kroger’s for $1.99/pound (reg $3.99/lb) last week, I was running pretty low on pork and really needed to stock up.

I purchased 32 pounds, they came in 5-6 pound packages and I had the butcher cut some of it into chops and some into smaller roasts. This should be enough to last our family until the next sale.
