Meals

This month so far o have an average of about 50.00 a week for food.   I have had a 75 percent off day and a 48 percent off day.   I did notice on a recent grocery haul, the same pasta I just bought for .50 was 1.49.  

1. Breakfast for dinner : scrambled eggs, hash browns. Oranges and blueberries, English muffins, 
2. Pizza ( mom went out to a dinner meeting ) 
3. Left overs : meatloaf and potatoes with green beans  or pizza. 
4. Clam chowder, ( milk, clams, potato, bacon,  ) Biscuits 
5. Fish packets : spinach, rice, white beans, fish, fresh green beans 
6. Pork  tenderloin ,rice medley  Broccoli
7. Mac and cheese, fruit salad 

Notes 1) eggs were 1.50 a dozen at Fred Meyers.    Blueberries were cheaper to buy three small than one large.   ( always do the math) hash brown cook on the oven and are frozen- cheap at grocery outlet or Winco.    About 4.00. 

2) pizza was on sale for 2.44

3) leftovers added a free bag of red potatoes and green beans.   

4) clams are 2.00, I bought a potato for .69 a pound.    The bags of potatoes were 2.99 and the same bag was .99 at Winco.    I opted to pay more but loose less because it didn't make sense to drive a mile up the road for one thing,   Biscuits were free.    

5) fish was purchased at Winco in bulk.   I bought green beans for 33 percent off at QFC.   

6) pork tenderloin was 2.50 at Winco, rice from last night with peas and shredded carrots.  Broccoli was free . 

7) Mac and cheese starts with a white sauce base, cheese, and macaroni I got for .49.   

      Pasta .49, 2 cups cheese, 1.00,  blues and oranges on sale.   

With the exception of the fish. All of these meals were under five dollars  for four people.    Certainly,
The average would be less.
