I am also working on a master menu list for the next month. I have been reading Wholesome Womanhood - Melinda and Carrie have a wonderful blog! I found it from a guest post on Money Saving Mom - a must read! It is about "Saving Money by Simplifying Meal Planning."
For the month of March, I will have our budget set at $100 and I will use $50 for stocking up. I have a long list of meals that I can make already - I am trying to get a whole month's worth.
When I am finished I will share it with you! Can't wait!
Let me know what you think about the guest post from Wholesome Womanhood!
I read that post as well and really enjoyed it. It's a good idea, and I hope it works well for you! :)
ReplyDeleteI am going to try the same weekly meal plan for the month thing in April. I have enough stuff for lots of different meals instead of the same thing. I went over our budget this month (only by a little) so March is going to be a stock up month. :D
DeleteGood luck on your meal plan! When I was pregnant with my second, I really concentrated on stocking up on freezer meals, and it was a life-saver for us when I had a baby. I have a deep freezer, and I had enough dinners to last through the first two months. I'm totally doing it again when we have another baby!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great idea! I should probably do that too. We have a deep freezer as well. I will have to ask my husband what type of meals he would like! Thanks for the idea!
DeleteHi Carlye,
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing your menu plan! I was wondering if you could post your recipe for quiche? It sounds like it would be good and I've never made one. Thanks!

Hey Lindsey! Here is a link http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Quiche/ - I just use it as a guide line. You can change the cheese and toppings. Thanks so much for reading!
