I am so excited with how Week 4 went and actually for all of January! The only items I purchased were a frozen dinner bowl , a loaf of Italian bread and a couple of other odds and ends for a total $23.54. We had everything else we needed to get by and if I ran out of something, instead of running out and buying it I just made do and improvised.
It was a good week in the meal department. Sunday I made a big pot of meat sauce with spaghetti and Italian bread which we ate for lunch for about 3 days after as well. We also had a big pot of chicken soup, and crockpot chili sauce chicken with stuffing and beans. We even had a white pizza on Saturday night which we got for free for the hubs doing a favor for the pizzeria owner. Those are the best kinds of pizza right? I also made two loaves of raisin bread to test out my yeast for St. Joseph’s bread season which is right around the corner. It was very yummy.
Total this week $23.54
Grand total for the year $266.66
What did you have this week for dinner that was interesting? Have you ever though of a no spend month? That is definitely one of my goals coming up.
See you next week! -MM
