[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In terms of food budget - I could cut down a lot if I needed to, not only by cooking at home, but also in grocery choices. For example, store brand oatmeal in bulk + a spoonful of frozen berries on sale + a splash of milk & maybe a spoonful of sugar = $0.30 per person for breakfast. Eggs are also super cheap - 2 eggs + a slice of toast. For dinner, bean & cheese tacos, rice & lentils, spaghetti with sauce you make yourself from canned (or fresh) tomatoes. You can do dinners for $10 for the family on those kinds of meal. If I was home all day and cooking from scratch, I would really save the family a ton with this stuff. [b] There was a great thread last summer about a woman with a weekly food budget of $60 for her and her son. It had very practical tips on how to eat well on that.[/b] [/quote] anyone find the link? thanks[/quote]
