Weekly Forkfuls...

I will start posting our Meal Plans for the week so you get a little peek into what we are devouring on any given day. I do our plannings usually on Thursday or Friday so I make sure I pick everything up for the week ahead at the store, I will try to post these on Fridays. I will also include links to recipes if I was inspired that way. When I assemble our Meal Plan for the week, I try to have meals that will provide lunch for B and I the next day so we do not have to buy food throughout the week. Working Downtown, lunch averages $10 and if you have that everyday, that is $50 a week and $200 a month! Our budget is always at the forefront of my mind and Meal Planning was a great way for us to save more money.

A note about our weekly meal plans is that they are made and we try to stick to them but there is always a chance it will not actually go to plan! Hope you enjoy this little installment.
