I'm so boring (and exhausted) the only thing I've been writing on here in our menu. I was excited to hit up Sprouts last Wednesday after BSF and get about two weeks worth of produce for all around a $1 per pound or less. They also had boneless thighs for $1.69 so I stocked up on those as well. I was pretty excited to be able to plan out all our meals until after our next payday and still have $80 in grocery cash left! I cheated somewhat since there was a bit on meat in my freezer to start the month off.
When buying large quantities of produce, it can be tricky to ensure that nothing goes to waste. I check the drawer everyday and plan to eat the softer, more delicate fruits and vegetable first and save things like sweet potatoes, carrots and apples for later in the two week cycle. It was a challenge to get this much food to all fit into my refrigerator.
