I am very happy with my January experiment. I'm not exactly sure how much it took to feed us, but I know it was under our usual expenses by around $100. And even though planning a frugal meal plan for 14 days is akin to preparing for a final exam, $100 is enough incentive to do it again! Here's the plan for this month:
1st and 3rd
T - Skillet Lasagna, Salad
W - Broccoli & Cheese Potato Soup, Rolls
R - Bahamian Peas and Rice, Carrots
F - Bean Chicken Salad, Bread
S - Chicken Lo Mein, Broccoli Slaw
U - Chili, Corn Bread
M - Mojo Chicken, Black Beans, Rice, Yellow Sauce
2nd and 4th
T - Spaghetti, Salad, Rolls
W - Ham & Bean Soup
R - Swedish Meatballs, Egg Noodles, Peas
F - Pizza, Salad
S - Bramble Beans, Salad
U - Chicken Fiesta with Black Beans, Tortillas
M - Red Beans and Rice
This should last more than 28 days. We have a lot going on this month - it is one of the nicest months to be in south Florida and there are a gazillion events on the schedule. Some of them involve free food! That also means food someone else cooks and cleans up after! Hooray!
