Freezer Friendly: Bread

Two options to save money on bread.

- We usually pay no more than $1 for a loaf of bread. So when we go out to get bread we buy several and freeze them. They thaw quickly (within an hour or two if left out on the counter) and come out fluffy and delicious, more moist than when they were bought.

- Another option is to make your own bread. Usually this requires a bread maker but a bread pan should work just as well. Breadmakers can sometimes be found for as little as $5-10 at thrift stores like GoodWill. They were a fad back in the early 2000's and people have donated them to charities because of the counter space they tend to take up, which could be a steal for you. However, beware of some of the used ones, they may not include the user manual or not work at all. Homemade breads have a harder crust than store bought breads but house a moist, luscious center. So good you may not want to stop eating.
