I've noticed that since I started adding more vegetarian meals to our menu plan the grocery budget has become easier to stick to. I went pescatarian back in May and so there was an added incentive to change things a little as I didn't want to be cooking different meals for everyone.
My current budget, for 4 people, is set around the £250 {$390} mark and I'm going to try and reduce it to £230 {$360}without sacrificing our food quality; I know I could do a lot more with beans and pulses.
My budget runs from 18th - 17th monthly, so starting next week I'll be reporting my grocery spending alongside my menu plan.
Anyway this weeks menu plan:
Monday: Chickpea Curry/Rice
Tuesday: Sweet Chilli Noodles {a family request as they loved them last week}
Wednesday: Baked Salmon, Mash and Broccoli
Thursday: Chilli and Rice
Friday: Out for the day
Saturday: Sausages and vegetables
Sunday: Pizza, Jacket Potato and Salad
