Menu Planning on $75
Week of November 20, 2017.
I love fresh starts and I look at every Monday as a fresh start to a new week. I thrive on the challenge of planning my weekly grocery budget with only $75. Mind you I don't do it just for the challenge I do it as a necessity because we live off of one income and that means living a frugally as possible so that we can do fun things as a family from time to time.
This week before I started my menu plan for the week I took inventory of fridge and pantry and came up with a list of items that need to be used up. Here is the list:
- 3 Tomatoes
- 1 Salad Mix
- Butternut Squash Soup
- Broccoli & Cheese Soup
- 1/2 jar Spaghetti Sauce
- 4 Peppers
- Celery
- Apples
