We all brought home leftovers and that’s what we ate for dinner. Leftover lasagna, salad. I’m using a portion to make nachos for dinner, along with watermelon. Giant also had a really low price on the seedless watermelon. Today is Day 14 and I’m recapping the week’s menu and my shopping trips.

What I Spent So I went to pull together my grocery spending for the week and I realized that it’s all quick trips to Safeway. Sunday Leftover sandwiches; they’re great reheated in the toaster oven on the air-fryer setting. Wednesday Leftover chicken quesadillas. We had some raw veggies and fruit on the side.

Grocery spending can get out of hand quickly, so I post our weekly menu to ensure that I am planning it weekly. Our monthly grocery budget for my family of 4 is $500. Lunches included leftovers, sandwiches, chicken nuggets, soups, apples, pretzels, and yogurt sticks. What did you make this week that your family enjoyed?

My intent is twofold: to hold me accountable with our grocery spending and to give some ideas and insight into how we eat on a budget. I was running low and that would cause all sorts of drama and havoc at my house. My husband is a huge NFL fan so we always make a big deal about the Super Bowl. Sunday: Super Bowl Sunday.

However, groceries is also an easy budget category to control, but it takes some planning, skill, and organization. Personally, if I don’t make a shopping list and plan my meals, my grocery budget is toast. When I plan a menu, my spending is generally under control. That is a lot of money, so I plan our meals.
