  1. Your menu looks great! Thanks for stopping by. I will give you some ideas on how I feed my family of 5 for $80. per week. I don't know how much of this you already do so bear with me.

    First I plan our menu on the sale flyers and my pantry. So if avadacos are on sale you will see sandwiches and gauc, but if they are not I skip them. Staple like tuna I stock up on when on sale and wont buy if it's not. Same goes for fruit and veggies, on sale on the menu otherwise we hold off. beyond that I make a lot of what we eat from scratch - breads, tortilla, bagles, english muffins, granola, yogurt, salad dressings, fruit leathers, apple sauce. I don't know if you do this or have the time, but it is a huge money saver. Making yogurt at home is easy and at least 1/2 the price of buying organic yogurt. Granola is an even bigger savings. I also buy in bulk, garden and freeze and can a lot, and use coupons. Hope this gives you some ideas. Let me know if you have any questions.

    Happy and healthy eating!

  2. Thank you so much Elizabeth. I just decided to start buying my grains and baking stuff in bulk. I do try to make my own of everything. But these tips are really great. We usually get the sales flyers every wednesday, I bet I could use that to make my meals! I will be doing that indefinately!
