**Weekly Tip: I am always looking for meal preparation shortcuts. In doing so, I often find myself using the seasoning packets that are found at any grocery store. I use them for spaghetti, meat loaf, tacos, Chinese stir-fry, guacamole, and sometimes even gravy. They are inexpensive, and with a few additional ingredients, the seasoning packets can help you cook a yummy meal in no time!
