Thursday Zoe picked up some fast food for herself after work, and I ate some random stuff from the fridge (leftover pasta and some butternut squash soup , plus a grilled cheese sandwich). But I can tell you that the pasta is ALL gone now, so dinner will not include leftover pasta again. Friday I don’t know!

For my menu planning, I start by scouring my freezer, fridge, and pantry to see what I have on-hand already. but I know we ate!

It's been forever since I've posted a menu plan. Thus, the weekly menu has not been what it ought to be. I notice I tend to desire to eat out more when the menu isn't planned, which in turn causes a higher cost in our food budget. That needs to get nipped in the bud! That needs to get nipped in the bud!

I didn’t really grocery shop this week because…busy. Sunday Zoe ate some leftover pizza and I made myself a green salad topped with chicken. Wednesday Leftover broccoli noodle soup. But for the next week, you can be sure I will be phoning it in on the dinner front, just as much as I did this week. ?

What I Spent I did get a Hungry Harvest box and I made a small trip to Aldi, but I haven’t done an honest-to-goodness grocery shopping trip since we got back from Hawaii! Chiquita commandeered the empty pizza box Wednesday Zoe was out with a friend, so I ate the leftover burger from Monday night.

How to Save Money on Groceries. There’s a reason why menu planning is #1 on this list. When I plan a menu, my spending is generally under control. When I don’t plan, I make multiple trips to the store, eat out too often, and most certainly blow our budget. You’ll be thankful later. Utilize the Freezer.
