This week’s menu will again reflect a little bit of a change. For the past six months, we have made a point of eating our freezers down to zero. Now we will be switching gears and making a priority out of eating down our home pantry stockpile. So this week’s menu, in lieu of making individual meals, we are using up pantry staples for the bulk of this week’s menu. This is done to keep costs on this menu plan low and to eat our stockpile down before buying new food. Please note, this menu is designed to feed our family of 4 for one week for under $40.00 each week.
As a family, we are also looking for more ways to incorporate health-conscious efforts into our diet. This includes Meatless Monday meals and more streamlined weeknight dinners. Meals which intentionally be turned into lunches during the week. All minimalist means to keep our food waste to a minimum as much as possible! It’s all about consistency, meal prep, and a little planning!
As well, please note that our menu is designed to feed our family of 4 for one week for under $40.00 each week.
