By shopping at Aldi… seriously
We like to save in the summer by using the crockpot or bbq to make meals so as not to heat the house up. Plus of course using lot’s of coupons and keeping our own veggie garden.

I get your email newsletter. I love those “petals”!
Fresh fruits and veggies are always cheaper in the summer. I wish I could get them from my own garden, but our apartment living isn’t very conducive to that right now. So to the Farmers Market we go!

I save money by planting an ever expanding garden.
We have tuna a lot; tuna ring salad, tuna melts, tuna sandwiches and just serve it with fruits or veggies and dip.

This year we will be planting our first LARGE garden and we love to grill…..usually it’s a “bring your own meat” or we’ll provide meat and guests will bring sides…..
I like to save on summer entertaining by simply doing all my own cooking at home! I can grill or use the crockpot and I love cool/cold summer desserts!! Love summer!

We save by growing our own food and then inviting friends over for potluck style meals
My favorite way of saving on entertaining is hosting a potluck and making my own centerpieces.
a way to save is to have a potluck!
We love to use clear bowls of different sizes to display brightly colored fruit, while entertaining. It makes the table bright and appealing, while only using things we already had on hand, eliminating the costly serving bowls.
Tip for saving on summer entertaining : have a potluck, serve iced tea as a beverage, and accept all donations of help and food!

We love to do lots of appetizers and smaller dishes rather than cook a large meal. That way everyone has a variety of smaller things to nibble on the whole time. And of course, we use coupons.
We like to save by going out to the park and having a picnic instead of eating out as often.
By having everyone bring a dish to share.
potluck parties! a great way to save and try new dishes
Serving up some veggies from our garden.
I love to entertain in the summer because I love to BBQ. I have my friends bring a dish, I provide the meat and homemade dessert. I can’t wait for summer!

Hi, we save by growing our own vegetables. We also ask people to bring a dish to pass, then we get to sample some new foods also!

We use the grill a great deal to keep house cooler, we also cook tougher cheaper cuts of meat in the crockpot for things like sandwiches to cut the heat and save on grocery $. Cold sandwiches and veggies with dip and salads are another way to save on electricity. Rice, pasta and grain salads go a long way and save on protein. Rule number one in my house is the big oven is not to be turned on until Sept. if it cools off enough by then. If it doesn’t fit in my toaster oven ( nice toaster/convection oven) it doesn’t get cooked in an oven. Crockpot also works well for a lot of baking such as potatoes, lasagna roll-ups, meatloaf that sorta thing. This is Tx it gets hot early and stays hot for about 5- 6 mo, so summer cooking is a big deal.
I read this through my email subscription
I also follow on facebook and I’d tweet if I could remember my acct name and password…. can’t you tell I use it often…lol
btw I love the bowls and the would be great for salad, sandwich or potato bars.
So stinking cute!
I save on summer entertaining by stocking up on snacks whenever there is a sale!
