I’m so excited to be again to sharing my grocery journeys and menu plans after taking time without work for my maternity depart!
In case you’re new right here, I observe the Purchase Forward Precept — which implies that what we purchase every week is commonly for future weeks. We replenish on the very best offers and markdowns every week and that implies that we then have quite a lot of objects from earlier purchasing journeys to make use of to plan a menu from.
Along with training the Purchase Forward Precept, I Reverse Meal Plan. Because of this I plan based mostly upon what we’ve got available plus what good gross sales/markdowns I discovered on the shops. (Learn extra about Reverse Meal-Planning right here.)
Our Menu Plan for This Week
Breakfast — cereal, toast, fruit, cheese, eggs
Lunches — veggies, fruit, cheese/crackers, leftovers, Ramen (for the teenagers!), yogurt, PB&J, grilled cheese sandwiches
Snacks — banana bread, cheese/crackers, popcorn, fruit, M&M’s, brownies, chips
Dinners (we normally have fruit/veggies on the aspect) — One Pot Enchilada Rice (I added rooster), Dinner with pals (we introduced fruit), Spaghetti, Rooster Gravy over Noodles, Do-it-yourself Sizzling Pockets (I’m filling them with the ham & cheese I purchased), Waffles/Sausage, Frozen Pizza.
My little purchasing helper!
I used to be enthusiastic about this cracker deal!
Right here’s all the things I purchased. My complete was slightly over $57. So we’re $13 below our $70 grocery price range — I’m rolling that over to this subsequent week and hoping there can be some nice offers to apply it to!
The onions, two packages of ham, three containers of crackers, one bag of cheese, and a number of the eggs and butter can be saved for future weeks.
Oh and in case you’re questioning what was occurring with the butter… my helper was engaged on that! 😉
