Weekly Shopping & Meal Plan

Saturday, March 9, 2013


(Under breakfast instead of two Southwestern Quiches one should be Eggs and Hashbrowns)

Just got done with my shopping spree for this week, although my shopping sprees have been lasting a lot longer then a week. Last weeks, weeks worth of shopping lasted 17days and this week i planned on more meals so it might last that long again. It lasted that long because some of the items i bought for certain meals where able to actually be stretched for more then one meal. Love it when that happens! Like the chicken i bought last shopping trip has still lasted and will be used for the Baked Chicken and Spinach Flautas and the Cheddar & Cracker Chicken.

Total i spent about $66 for this weeks shopping which i know will feed us more then a week, like i said. I was excited to get it down to $66. I budget $100 a week but my goal is $50 a week. So with the stockpile money i spent i guess it was over $100 lol but oh well… i could have done fine with just $66 for the week so that is good.

Also I spent about $48 in stockpile goods between two stores. That was 10 boxes of cereal, 4 packages of sausage rolls and 2 packages of bacon, 10 packages of cinnamon rolls and 4 packages of crescent rolls. That is an average of $1.60 an item. Pretty good!

So far for prepared meals i have stockpiled are:
  • 2 (or more) Meals of Creamy Chicken Pasta
  • Oven Fried Chicken Tacos
  • Corn Dog Muffins
  • Banana Bread Muffins
  • Pancake & Sausage Muffins
  • Scrambled Egg Muffins
  • Cinnamon Rolls
  • Bagels
In addition to those meals i have frozen i also believe that i will have extra Baked Chicken and Spinach Flautas, Southwestern Eggrolls & Quiche that i will be adding to my meal stock after this week.

That should be able to help me once my baby is born :)
