Our Weekly Meal Plan – March 12th
Getting back into a regular routine with school back in and my Sculpt menu plan in place. This week’s menu is mostly from our freezer with a few fresh food purchases.
Planning:
- Go through flyers for best prices. Also check online for specials at local butchers, farmer’s markets, bakeries and shops.
- Check freezer, fridge, pantry and make as many meals as possible with these items and items on sale this week.
- Make menu and shopping list.
Here’s what I purchased:
- 1 large bag spinach $2.97
- Apples $4.99
- Bananas $1.99
- 1lb extra lean ground beef $3.75
- Sweet Potatoes $2.64
- 2x Dozen Eggs $1.77 each
- 10kg flour $7.99
Menu:
