This week's groceries
I spent $43.41 at HEB bringing my food total up to $137.80 for this month. My goal is to stay under $300 a month. I also bought some razor blades a Wal-Mart. Why are razor blades so stinking expensive??* Anyways that brings our non-food groceries up to $21.05. I’m wanting to keep this category under $25 a month. I’m trying a lower goal now that Gracia doesn’t wear diapers at night.
Menu
Breakfasts: Eggs, smoothies, oatmeal, cream of wheat, toast or fruit
Lunches: Leftovers, sandwiches or burritos
Suppers:
- Super nachos, chips, fresh salsa and fruit
- Bean soup
- I was going to make stuffed peppers with the leftover bean soup…but forgot to buy the peppers….so we’ll probably just have leftover bean soup.
Who says veggies are boring? Look at these bright colors!
- Spaghetti, salad and steamed carrots
- Grilled cheese sandwiches, boiled cabbage and salad
- Chicken quesadillas, chips and salsa and maybe some fruit too
- Leftovers
Over the weekend I tried these frozen bananas coated in chocolate and peanut butter, only I used regular chocolate and peanut butter and omitted the coconut. We all LOVED them!
I want to try the frozen bananas for the dorm. So glad you hear you liked them! Maybe I’ll make some today!
They’re really delicious!! I like to think of them as a healthier Reeses peanut butter cup!
I love that you keep track of non-food items…I will try that next month. I have started to separate meat from other groceries and was shocked to find it was a much lower portion of my monthly grocery bill than I had thought.
