Groceries for 4/18-4/25




This is what our 20.00 budget allowed for this week. We shopped on two different days so there are two different pictures..I know what you are saying, that is not much! Where is the meat? It's in my stockpile freezer silly! Where's the milk? We don't drink much and we using a lot of the coconut milk in our stockpile for cereal. The cool whip, mayo, half the grapes and two bananas are for an apple salad I am bringing to my parents house for Easter. The recipe will be in the post right after this one. I take no credit it for it's my Aunt Linda's recipe.  The sweet potatoes and left over bananas are for making baby food the the little dude. Want to see how we eat on a budget?
