Average Spend

The Motley Fool figures that the average American spends $45.68 going out to eat each week. Take that times 2 adults, that's $91.35/week per household, or $365.38 a month. Add children into that mix and you've spent well over $5,000 a year in dining or take out. Imagine the cost savings you would have in your pocket - or bank account - if you meal planned and began cooking from home.

Have A Plan

How to make cooking from home simple, you may ask? Two words - Meal. Plan. This can be attained a couple different ways. Either you plan out what to make each night for the week, or you coordinate your larger meals with what leftovers you will have from them.
