Refrigerated Pizza Dough
DIY pizza is an activity that doubles as a homemade dinner. Be mindful about choosing topping options, so that any leftovers can be used in other meals.
Popcorn Kernels
Skip pricey snack foods and give the kids the same satisfaction by serving freshly popped popcorn. Use on-hand pantry staples to season different batches. (The kids won't even realize they're snacking on whole grains!)
Waffle or Pancake Mix
Instead of plowing through boxes of costly cereal or frozen breakfast goods, treat your houseguests to fresh waffles and/or pancakes. If the kids are old enough, hand over the reins and put them to work instead.
Frozen Juice Concentrate
Stock up on a few cans when the sales hit. Not only will this eliminate the cost of buying gallons of juice, but parents will also appreciate being able to water down any too-sweet batches.
