Make a Hot Breakfast

From About.com

This is not so much a money saver as it is a time saver, but my mom always said time is money, so here it is.

I have 3 children, ages 8,7, and 4 years old. I babysit a 10-month old a lot, too. When I make pancakes, waffles or french toast I make lots of them and freeze them. During the week when we used to have time for only cold cereal or toast for breakfast, I can pull the individually wrapped servings out, microwave them and the children get a hot breakfast at least 3 mornings during the week. Also, when it comes to cutting those pancakes, waffles or french toast in a hurry, you just can't beat the pizza cutter; that way everyone gets to start eating at about the same time and nobody is late for school. - Submitted by Cheryl
