Menu Monday #16
This week is another “Just Make Do” week at our house.
A review of our checkbook when paying some surprise medical bills and medicine “encouraged” me to plan to eat from the cabinets and freezer for the rest of this week. The only items purchased this week were 2 gallons of milk, 2 dozen eggs, oats & 2 loaves of bread totaling less than $12.00 total. If it is on the menu this week we already have it OR we will make adjustments to it and use what is on hand.

I am happy to share, that eating from the cabinets last month went well, but now it is time to restock. Due to the amount of groceries we purchased this weekend, three carts at Save-a-lot alone, we are sharing our stock up trip in a separate post tomorrow.

Menu Monday #14
As we enter week #14 and share our Menu Monday plan, we are wrapping up the end of our one month budgeted grocery period. During this week we are trying hard to “Just Make Do” with food from the fridge and cabinets. Keeping this in mind, we will not have a shopping trip to share this week, we didn’t last week either.
I would estimate that we have spent approximately $50 for this week’s groceries. Those items included: 3 gallons of milk, eggs, cheese, bread, lunch meat, orange juice and a few more dairy products. Items we were unable to pre-purchase and store in the freezer.

This week did not require a large shopping trip since we are eating from the cabinets and freezer and only purchasing dairy, produce and bread as needed. We are having guests for lunch each day during band camp and did increase our lunch plan to accommodate a larger lunch crowd but we still not change our over all menu. We haven’t even needed to purchase drinks after the great drink haul I grabbed at Save A Lot

This week’s menu is nothing exciting and almost all easy meals due to the fact I am struggling with some additional physical issues and trying to plan accordingly so that I can take care of my family but not use all my energy on cooking or cleaning up (which my husband definitely does more than his share of dishwasher loading and emptying, bless his heart.)

This week we are changing it up a bit at Treasured Tidbits and will be adding breakfast, lunch and snack menus to our weekly Monday Menu. We have added a little one to our house three days a week and can no longer just “toss” something together at the last minute. And since I am a SUPER COOL babysitter we are planning to have “themed” snacks.
