These aren't recipes for food, but they are money saving recipes that I copied from Stacy's page. She has a wonderful blog, with lots of great money saving tips.
Homemade shout
1/2 c. white vinegar
1/4 c baking soda

stir together and fill a labeled spray bottle. Spray on heavily soiled spots just before washing. (test a hidden spot for colorfastness first)
Fabric Softener
2 cups cold water
1 cup baking soda
1 cup vinegar, either kind will do.
1. Place baking soda in LARGE bowl and pour vinegar over it; while it's bubbling, pour cold water in and mix.
2. Store in sealed container and shake before using to combine all ingredients.
3. Add 1/4 cup of mixture during the last rinse cycle (Does not work well with a Downy ball.) This stuff is WONDERFUL!
