Hello, how did our first week go? Did you get your inventory done,or just organize your food items?
This week’s challenge is called fill in because, just as it sounds you will get your main meal plan figured out, then use as little fill ins as you can example, use rice and frozen veggies for a big stir fry vs say meat and veggies. Try to use any left overs for as big of batch’s as you can, this is a great way to get meals in the freezer. Aim for more comfort basic foods, I find you can make stretch farther.
This should cut down the grocery bill by more the you would think. Here is a 2 week meal plan I did up for us, also some lunches are not filled in because the older kid’s are in school, so there is less required for the younger one! 🤗
Hope you have fun with this and be open minded when it comes to your meals!
Till next week for the third challenge have a great money saving week, with this challenge😁❤

Well as February rolls in let’s think about loving what we have, Yes! This month it is going to be all about that… Loving and using what we have. This means less shopping and more saving. To kick it off as the first challenge it is going to be organize and priorarize your stuff… Stuff like food items/ meal plannin and bill organizing. Sounds easy enough.. Right?
So first thing first, figure out if you are going to use good old pen and paper or a spread sheet on your computer? Got your Stuff? Now let’s start.
Let’s start with bills, figure out what needs to be paid and when with how much, this way you will know what you have to work with and what you have left.
Next, we are going to organize our food and what we have on hand. With this you can make an inventory list, this will come in handy when you are getting ready to meal plan. With the inventory it can be written or typed or with a dry erase marker written right on the side or side of the freezer!
With this step as what I find one of the biggest steps done you can gather a meal plan for the week! Only the week and buy only essentials if any! This is because of next week’s challenge which will…. Meal plan and fill ins!!
So come, try the first challenge of February of organize and priorarize😁 and have fun with it and be creative!!
