5 Steps to a Grocery Budget That's Right for You
Another good way to save money on groceries is by doing meal planning and prep more than 5 seconds in advance.  (Yeah, I am guilty.)  I really liked this video for some ideas on how to eat Vegan for $5 a day.  Please note that this video is for one person only so just multiply however many times needed.

Welcome back for another weekly install of Budget Meal Recipes!

Budget Meal Recipes for June 12th - June 18th

Bals Lentil Cookies I hope everyone has had a great week!  Here in the U.S., Sunday was Father's Day, a day known for great grilling and feeding dad his favorite foods. My husband lucked out and his sister had made his favorite dessert, peanut butter bars, for the potluck Father's Day dinner.  I'm thankful for the time we get to spend with family and enjoy good food together! Small Brown Lentils Every week as I go through and find the recipes on the Facebook group I end up thinking I shouldn't be doing this around lunch time.  There are so many yummy looking recipes!

Budget Meal Recipes for June 19th - July 2
