Menu Ideas From the Brookshire's Ad

After taking the summer off, I thought it was about time to get back to making a menu plan from the sale ad.

A meal plan is a great way to save money and not waste food.

I want to show you that as long as you are intentional in your shopping and cooking, you will save money on your grocery bill regardless if you use coupons or not. Generally, the cost of the whole meal will be less than or equal to the tip you would leave at a restaurant.

These ideas are taken directly from the Brookshire's circulars.

  2. Fried Chicken, French Fries, & Cantaloupe Slices
