I used to spend about 300$ a month on all food/eating out etc for myself and 2 kids. Now living with DP and his 2 dd's has been eye opening!
We have no food allergies known but other minor issues
Ds will not eat beef at all
DP is a big meat eater
DSD *1 we suspect has sensitivity to food preservatives. Overall DP was spending 700$
I have a sams membership for another year. I would love to start making more from scratch food and cutting the budget down, but am stick unpacking and adjusting to the extra people to feed. What would be the best way to lower the budget first?
Eating out less? As a family of 6 we don't eat out often
Making snacks from scratch? (right now a little difficult but in the future)
Freeze ahead meals
