6. Waste not, want not

What a fantastic idea. No matter how careful you are when eating a taco, quite a bit of the filling ends up on the plate.

Instead of using a fork, eat your hard-shelled taco over a flour tortilla and you end up with a second taco.

7. A little at a time

For individuals or small families, most people end up using one or more pounds of bacon when they don’t need that much.

8. Easy French toast

Who doesn’t love French toast? When you’re in a hurry and that’s what everyone wants for breakfast, cook it in a waffle maker.

Not only does it taste the same but it’s also pretty. The furry guy loitering in the upper left corner of the pic sure seems to think so. 😋
