This weeks meal plan: Instant pot pasta Chicken kebabs with salad Burgers Not sure Easy Take away Left overs The Netflix show I referenced about garlic is …
Bummer about the cheese! Deciding what can and can’t be substituted in a click and collect is too much pressure for me 😂😂😂
Good luck with your low spend Oct!
Definitely thought it would have cost way more than $116 with meat, pies, eggs, bacon etc in there.
I'm doing click and collect orders too but I have set my order to no substitutions for most things except for stuff like loo paper 🙂
Basic ingredients I try to buy store brand- flour, sugar, pasta, canned legumes etc. I tend to buy name brands for anything more gourmet or with more flavour- sauces, seasonings, tea, coffee etc. I think I have the idea the cheap ones are not as good but I should probably try some again.
Kebabs and couscous, chicken and veg, taco soup, Schnitzels and chips, pizza/ portobello mushroom pizza, burgers, chicken pad thai.
My Woolworths click n collect is usually excellent but this time I had to shuffle meals around as a number of things were close to use-by.
I don't like fresh mango but like most mango flavoured things and I love Frozen Mango in my smoothies. Most people think I am weird.
I buy mostly store brand things. I try most things in the store brand to see if we like them, but I do check where they are made first. Some things we haven’t liked and somethings just don’t have an option for home brand.
This week we have Honey mustard chicken, Lamb wraps (leftover roast), Korean mince bowls, Sticky pork chops, Lasagna, Frozen/oven fish and chips, Roast Pork. We don’t have room for takeaway in our budget and rarely have leftovers with a teen boy in the house.
We have store brands in Canada and it's great to try and save money especially if it tastes the same
Hi Ellen I make Potato, onion and bacon bake or make a cottage pie with beef mince. I hope this will help 👍👍
