Making Life Better


If you hear "I am starving! or What's for dinner?" each day then we have the perfect site for you! Do you get tired of the same meals each week? If so then it sounds like you could use a little meal inspiration! At our house keeping dinner ideas fresh, easy to prepare and budget-friendly presents some challenges.

Unilever, the consumer package goods company, has spent a great deal of time thinking about how to make everyday life better and help us find ways to create great meals and do more with less. Their site, Making Life Better, features delicious recipes, affordable meal ideas and tips that stretch your budget and save you time.


Some of my favorites from the site include:
