A month worth of meals, yummy.


 Here's my basic meal plan for the next month. I had some of the ingredients on hand already (like some cream-of-wheat, tortillas, some bread, some meats) so my cost was just for my missing ingredients, All-in-all, my grocery bill for the whole month was $150! That's about $50 less than I normally spend :) 
The majority of the grocery bill was for all the fruit :)
I think it went pretty good :)
I didn't plan for a couple days here & there, because those are the days that my kids aren't home (they go to their bio-dad's those weekends), & my husband and I don't usually do lots of cooking on those weekends.

Breakfasts: cream-of wheat, breakfast burritos, Potatoes & chorizo, French toast, Omelets, cereal

Lunch: PB & banana, grilled cheese, PB&J, homemade pizza, Quesadillas,  CF mac & cheese, sandwiches

Snacks: bananas, apples & caramel, grapes, fruit smoothies, animal crackers, oranges, crackers & cheese
