Description
🔗 Save $3,000 A Year the Mountain Way. Get the Full Manual 👉 https://www.arliecaudill.com
Most folks spend better than a hundred dollars a month on chips, crackers, fruit snacks, and ice cream that are gone before the week is out. In this one I show you how Ruby and I make five of them ourselves up Rockhouse Creek, for about fifteen dollars all told.
We make cheese crackers rolled out with a canning jar, a frozen banana cream that needs no churn, and a fruit roll dried low and slow in your own oven. We also make little date and nut balls the grandbabies roll at the kitchen table, and popcorn with a cheesy dust that beats the orange bag.
Most store snacks are plain food with the water taken out. My Mamaw dried half of what she grew, and your kitchen can do the same thing, one pan at a time. I will also tell you the one mistake that ruins more fruit rolls than anything else. It is the closest thing to a real mountain secret in the whole business.
I will tell you what these do well and what they do not. Two of them need a store item or two, and I say so. None of it needs a machine you do not already have.
Start with two this week, not all five. Then tell me in the comments what fruit grows closest to your back door, and which store snack your house cannot quit. I read every one.
