I went to the grocery store and bought all the stuff for month 4. The cost was less than $125 for 14 meals (actually we ended up with more meals because of the amount of chicken left over).
Above is my menu for the month (this is actually month 4 from my book)
| My actual receipt - $124.22 for all the meat and sauce makings for 14 meals! - no coupons used! |
| Look at how long the receipt is! Yes it took me about an hour and a half to do the shopping. |
| The grocery list |
| The other half of the shopping list |
| Sauteeing the onions |
| Cutting chicken in to 4 oz pieces |
| Bags all labeled and ready to fill! |
| My helper, Jilli! We're holding a #10 can |
| Inside the can |
| Bag in a can |
| Chicken in a bag in the can! |
| one frozen meal - Cilantro lime steak |
| This is what my freezer looks like with 14 meals on one shelf. It doesn't take up much room at all |
Now you can see the basics of how this all works! Save yourself some time and money and try my book!!
