Frugal $5 Dinner Menu Nov 11 – 17

This post may contain affiliate links.

My goal is to provide dinner for my family for an average of $5 except on special occasions. We don’t have to eat beans and rice to accomplish this goal!  I shop the grocery sales each week.  Then I plan my menu based on the foods I have already at home (at a great price). I balance more expensive meals with less expensive ones. Because we cook multiples of each dish, we spend less time cleaning, cooking, and meal planning! Dishes {Read More}

It’s been a while since I’ve written up a menu plan.  We’ve mostly been just pulling meat that we cooked in bulk from the freezer and adding a piece of fresh fruit, some toast and perhaps a canned veggie to it for our meals.  If the house seems to be in order and we feel like it, one of us will cook.  We still have food running out of our ears (which is a blessing giving our current lack of {Read More}

The month long menu plan worked really well for January.  The only problem I had was leaving more of the meals that had to actually be cooked vs. pulled from the freezer until the last week.  Lucky for me my hubby was in town last week so it all worked out.  This month I’ll have to watch the menu a bit more carefully 😉 My goal is to provide dinner for my family for an average of $5 except on {Read More}

This year I’m going to try a monthly menu plan.  We tend to get ahead of our menu plan at times anyway, so I’m hoping this will simplify my life a bit.  If it doesn’t work out I’ll try a 2 week plan instead!
