I think it is so neat that you can do this, I am terrible about sticking to a menu. I do plan ahead but have attendance to mix things up.
ReplyDeleteThe menu is on the fridge but we don't always stick to what is scheduled. I'm the queen of arrows ( changing the food around ).
DeleteIt looks like you will be eating really well over the next month. I love how you planned on leftovers after the Engagement party.
ReplyDeleteI know there will be a truckload of food for the party so surely there will be leftovers.
DeleteHi Wendy, i have been following your blog for awhile. Do you want clarify please with your meal plan?
ReplyDeleteIs it for 3 meals a day or dinner and lunch only?
Thanks Lauren in Perth
The $100 a month I spend is for 3 meals a day. The menu plan above is just for the main meals. Darren and I eat toast for breakfast made from the bread I bake. I always have the jam I make on my toast. Darren has tomatoes in Summer and spreads at other times.
DeleteLunch is veggie soup in Winter, a toasted sandwich, an egg on toast or crumpets. In Summer I eat a salad sandwich, small portions of leftovers or the above.
Hi Wendy. Great list and given me lots of ideas! Just wondering why you are cooking for usually 2 people only now? Do your girls not live at home? Suzie K
ReplyDeleteJessica is home about 3 - 4 nights a week. She lives closer to her Uni. Megan does not live here but pops in for a feed every now and then.
DeleteHi Wendy
ReplyDeleteI’d love to see a months food shop for you and Darren for $100... would you consider doing a good haul on your Facebook page at all? You could use Facebook live.... I’ve been following you for years and have always hoped you’d be able to get hold of your tv segments so I could re watch these. So sad they’ve gone.
I love your blog but think you’d do so well vlogging too...
Happy Easter
Hi Mrs Wilson. I'm very tech challenged so running a blog is a huge deal for me. I'm considering setting up a Youtube channel and posting videos there.
DeleteAt the moment we are living off our pantry, fridge and freezer stockpiles and only buy what we run out of. I'll try to share what we buy when I get more time.
Thank you for your reply. I’m trying very hard to reduce our budget and our portion sizes. Only my husband and I at home. We don’t have children. We do have one dog though. Everyone’s portions are being halved soon : ) Great to read what you guys eat for breakfast and lunch thank you.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
