Those of you who don't know, since being married I have made it a point to do weekly meal plans and grocery shop once a week. At first I wanted to do it this way as we had busy lives and I would only have one or two days in the week with the time to go grocery shopping. And having a plan made it easier to actually make and eat good meals rather then eating fast food which is worse for you and also more expensive! And also, buying more in bulk is cheaper anyways!
Now that I have more time on my hand, I find it is easier, more fun and cheaper to meal plan. Going to the grocery store with a list and a plan saves so much more money!! I would like to get to the point where I can meal plan for the month and buy certain items in bulk, but then still grocery shop weekly for fresh fruits and veggies and more perishable items.
I've also gotten into couponing (thanks to Dirk's mom!) and have saved so much money! Just this week I saved $38 on my grocery bill by using coupons! But all that to say, I'd like to share on here some of my meal plans, couponing stories, and recipes that I've been using!
Recipes coming soon!
