I make our granola bars, tortillas, granola, BBQ sauce, ketchup and more to save as much as possible and make this happen despite inflation.
Monthly dinner meal planning is a must to make this work. I shop at Whole Foods for the majority of our food and then Aldi and Kroger. I use Azure Standard for bulk needs like oats, rice, wheat berries, nuts, etc.
I don't cook on Sundays - we normally alternate between breaded chicken patty sandwiches or macaroni and cheese and my husband makes these for us to give my daughter and I a break.
I try and balance our dinner meals between beans, chicken, turkey, beef and fish and my daughter makes homemade whole wheat pizza every Friday usually.
