There is a faction out in U tube land that is low spend month. Its when you declare that you have enough food to ‘eat down’ the pantry. It is a winning thing.
- Mac and cheese, the great comfort food. Easy and satisfying.
- Pizza is a staple. Everyone likes it and a cheese pizza is less than a dollar.
- Chicken nuggets are handmade with a breading of homemade bread crumbs, nuts, and parmesean cheese. Oven fries use almost no fat.
- Chicken and rice cassarole uses the rest of a package of chicken and is just good.
- Salmon cakes are from Costco salmon. Seasoned rice is a homemade mix. Using your own mixes gives you the flavor of favorite mixes without the things you can't pronounce.
- Tacos are from a kit bought at GO. It saves money because the kit cost what taco shells cost, but has taco sauce and seasoning in it as well.
- Breakfast for dinner is a favorite and a family affair, we all cook. I remember putting our ten 3 yo granddaughter at the buttering bread station. She was about half way through when she announced “ I can’t believe I get to do this!”
I just read that Seattle has some of the most expensive groceries in the nation. I teach people how to feed their family on four dollars a day and keep a pantry. Please consider sharing this blog. I would like to help more people.
