July Grocery Shopping and Meal Planning

You are probably going to think I'm going to break the bank when I tell you that I have spent $215 on groceries already this month. This is actually for meals until we head out of town plus includes some food storage, so hold on. We have also spent $19 on eating out. I know this is going to go up, but hopefully not too too much. Going out of town tends to do that.

The menu has some pretty good variety to it I think.

Hot Dogs w/Chips in honor of going to a baseball game
Ham Salad for get together
Chicken Pot Pie w/Salad
Pasta Carbonara (thanks Michelle for the recipe, it was really good) w/Salad
Tuna Noodle Casserole w/Veggie
Chicken Lo Mein
Ham & Beans w/Cornbread
Chicken Couscous
Fried Rice (Scott LOVES this!)
Meatloaf, Potatoes, w/Veggie (LOVES this too!)
Shredded Beef Burritos w/Homemade Spanish Rice
Roasted Chicken, Potatoes, Zucchini
Spaghetti Pasta Salad
Teriyaki Beef Over Rice
BBQ Chicken, Baked Beans, Potatoes
Pizza X 3

Usually I am able to get a few more meals out of what I purchase, so I'm hoping I can make it all the way through the end of the month.

Next up will be about my baking day.

    Thanks for putting the menu list up! I printed it out and now have ideas for my family too. Yummy menu. Was the $215 the total for ALL of these meals? Wow, great job!

    That recipe Michelle gave is really good! Last night I made shepherds pie with an Italian twist, it was good...can you come to my house and cook?
