Strict Grocery Budget:
I have a budget & a meal plan set for this pay period, which runs 5/15 to 5/31. Basically, this covers 3 weekends and 2 work weeks.
For the most part, my budget will be spent on salad stuff, veggies & fruits as well as some dairy & grains. I have plenty of meats stocked up and will supplement meals from what’s already in the freezer and pantry!
This weekend, I plan to spend roughly $38.00 of the $74.04 grocery budget.
This will include:
Milk
Yogurt
Lettuce
Tomato
Cucumber
Celery
Onion
Bananas
Tortillas
2 types of wheat Pasta
Good Seasons dressing mix
Cheerios
2 liter soda
I plan on hitting the Acme, the produce stand and Walmart. Then not hitting another grocery until the following weekend.
Meals will be the following: Not in any order
Breakfasts:
