Save money and time by doing this once a week. Welcome to another episode of Don't Call It Meal Prep because I don't associate with those freaks. Today, we're making bacon, egg, and cheese McMuffins. I meant to check with legal and if I can call them that, but I forgot because I'm bad at being a grown up. Good, we all have our flaws. Luckily, I only have one. Now where I live, a bacon, egg, and cheese McMuffin will run you $5.58. But after consulting with my daughter for division help and doing the math, I can make them myself for a dollar 82 per sandwich. This is a perfect example of something you can make at home and save money. In thirty minutes, the same amount of time it would have taken me to drive there, sit in the drive through, and drive home, I made 11 of these sandwiches. I would have made 12, but one of I good have made 12, but one of my kids ate one of the English muffins. They rank they run this place, I swear. No, since I'm making so many of these, I like to put half in the fridge and the other half in the freezer. By having breakfast ready, I get to sleep in, and that makes me a very happy clam. Forty five seconds in the microwave straight out tier fridge. Leave the paper on. What are you gonna do with all the money I'm saving you?
