Do I always want to cook from scratch?
Absolutely not.
However 99% of the time, a homemade version is going to save us money, and be better for our health.
Take my homemade sandwich bread recipe. Mine has seven simple ingredients. That’s it. Seven.
Have you seen the ingredient list on most store bought bread? No thank you. I also can make mine for Pennie’s when I buy in bulk.
I am by saying that I am perfect. Do I still buy store-bought bread products for convenience on occasion? Yes. However as we look at our grocery budget & how to rein it in this month, I will be going back to making most of our breads at home.
