Inexpensive Produce Wash | Being Frugal

Today I wanted to share a little secret with you...how to wash your produce using a safe, nontoxic product that only costs pennies on the dollar!
What is it? Shaklee's Basic H! Yes, that's right...we use Basic H to clean our produce from the store all the time! A question I'm asked a lot, "They sell Veggie Wash at Target (WalMart, grocery store, etc). Can't I just use that?" 
Yes, they do and yes, you can! But let's talk price comparison first. A 16oz bottle of veggie wash costs about $4. Not bad, right? Well, if you go through a bottle say every two weeks, that adds up to about $105 per year on a veggie wash ALONE! WHAT?!?
Now how about spending just $.20 to clean your produce? That's right, just PENNIES compared to DOLLARS to get your produce clean! And, there are zero harmful chemicals to worry about! Did you know that one 16oz bottle of Shaklee's Basic H makes over 200 bottles of cleaner? And that bottle of Basic H is only $10.35 (MP)!
Now, not everyone can afford to buy strictly organic produce, my family included. We are trying to do the best we can, but organic is EXPENSIVE and not always in the budget, so we decided the next best thing we can do is use a safe wash for all our produce. 
Shaklee has been around for 54 years making natural and organic cleaning products, which is why my husband and I trust their products for our family. And, it's why we chose to partner with them! Shaklee is all about making a difference in people's lives!
Here's your super easy, inexpensive, nontoxic veggie wash!

• 1/8-1/4 teas of Shaklee Basic H
• Fill your sink or big bowl of water
• Soak your produce for about 5-10 minutes
• Rinse 
• Enjoy your clean produce!

Make Your Own Hummus in Five Minutes Flat!

We love hummus around here! Like make it and eat it every week kind of love. Have you ever made it? It's so easy and so much cheaper than buying at the store where they put who-knows-what into it! In fact, our 4.5 year old knows exactly what ingredients to put in here at home!

See! Super easy!

I like to store our hummus in little containers from Ikea. They're the perfect snack size for each of us and great for the boys to take to preschool!
