Top 10 Money Saving Tips From Sandra Lee
![]() |

Even though the Food Network has only aired two episodes of Money Saving Meals, one hilarious trend has already presented itself: Sandy’s dispensing of painfully obvious advice. Last week we learned “boxed pasta is cheaper than fresh pasta!” and two weeks ago we were taught “store brands are cheaper!” With advice like that, we can’t help but wonder what tips she’ll be sharing over the upcoming weeks.

My favorite line was how “… this AMAZING salt adds great flavor!”
@Tatiana… I forgot about that one. That was hysterical. Salt adds flllllavor! Who knew!
I bet next week we will all learn that you can buy soda in 2-liter bottles, to save money at parties.
“Buy unpopped popcorn kernels and pop them yourself! It’s 26% cheaper than bags of pre-popped popcorn!!!!!”
There was also that great tip: “Use what’s in your refrigerator!” Gee, I always thought my refrigerator was just a mold factory.
Lest we forget, “Use leftovers to make meals the next day.” No!
Lordy! This was probably the worst show (next to the Neeley’s) that I forced myself to watch. And I am SOOO glad she mentioned that you can use food the next day – I am going to save thousands this year alone.
And just when I thought 5 Ingredient Fix was the worst show on the network (salt and pepper being two ingredients) this one is worse. Good work Food Network!
The sad thing is, she will most likely use this list! What’s next, she tells us that instead of using real vanilla extract, just to use the generic one?
“Fancy Feast makes an excellent, low cost filler for meatloaf. And you can use the cans to serve appetizers on!”
You’re giving her too much credit.
Or, if you run out of blue curacao, you can substitute the tidy bowl water to make that delicious vodka cocktail!
Purchase items from the sales circular then use the paper for serving.
“Steal packets of sugar from restaurants to use in baking – they’re FREE!”
Really, anybody picking up “tips” from this show is a grade A dumbass.
One of my beefs was that she made American chips instead of European “chips” (fries). WHORE!
Why do I always want to mutter in an Alton-esque way “Oh Bother!” whenever she offers one of her tips?
She actually has advocated buying in bulk on the show’s website, specifically citing buying a 5lb bag of onions. Because her magical onions never go bad or anything….
I have never heard of spaghetti-and-meatball calzones before. Is this a treat I’ve been missing all these years? Does Pepe’s serve them?
Hey Tatiana,
I know what they are?
From the laundry list at the hotel on vacation in Puebla.

Very funny !

> 6. You can use stale bread to make croutons!
In a similar vein, SLop oh-so-thoughtfully told us to keep the rest of the loaf of bread we used to make bread crumbs. Thanks, SLop!
I was laughing so hard reading this, my daughter ran in here from the other room, wanting to know what was so funny. I want to poke things in Sandra’s eyes.
Maybe if I was drunk like her, I’d appreciate her show more.
LOL!!!!! This post was hilarious. I also like the “flllavor” bit.
