One of my favorite kitchen hacks is 2-ingredient bread. Think naan or a flatbread, but we mix flour and Greek yogurt together and cook it in a pan for a couple minutes. Yes, it really is that easy. When I first heard about this bread, I was beyond skeptical. Surely it has to taste bad being that cheap and easy. It surely does not. It’s fluffy, soft, and the char from the pan gives it a lovely note. Now, when you are learning how to budget in your kitchen, this is the perfect example. Because a lot of cooking affordably means finding ways to substitute cheaper ingredients. For example, if you want to make a flatbread pizza, premade flatbreads from the store can be anywhere from $5-$10 or more. Now, what if you just made your own bread at home and did the same recipe?

That’s when you’re cooking with fire (figuratively speaking). When you become comfortable enough in the kitchen to start applying tricks you learned in other recipes to a different recipe, you are starting to really think about how you approach your meals.

My goal for you is simple. I want you to make good food and save money doing it. But the “method,” if you will, is that while you’re making my recipes, you will pick up different tools along the way. So much so that when you look back in a few months, a year, you don’t even realize all of the new techniques and hacks you're applying to your own cooking.

So get your flour and your Greek yogurt and let's mix the shit.
