I planned out meals before I went grocery shopping and I stuck to the list! I price-matched the best sales of the week to get the best deal on meat and produce.
I made most bags of food for multiple meals, since there are only 2 in my family. We usually take leftovers from the night before for our lunch the next day.
$91.00 = 60 items bagged
= 48 meals for 2 people + 4 sides of carrots + 12 frozen rings of chicken broth + all the cut vegetables ready to add to other meals.
= less than $2.00 a meal of good, healthy, homemade food.
Here are the bags I made:
2 Zucchini - sliced

1 Green Peppers - sliced

3 Green Peppers - chopped

3 Celery - chopped

1 Green Onion - chopped
