A sample week of budget dinners
- Monday. Lentil and vegetable soup with bread. Cheap, filling, and makes leftovers.
- Tuesday. Baked chicken thighs with rice and frozen mixed vegetables.
- Wednesday. Egg and vegetable fried rice using Tuesday's leftover rice.
- Thursday. Bean and cheese quesadillas with a simple side salad.
- Friday. Pasta with a tomato and lentil sauce.
- Saturday. Roast chicken with potatoes and carrots.
- Sunday. Chicken and vegetable stir fry from the Saturday leftovers.
Notice how Tuesday's rice feeds Wednesday and Saturday's chicken feeds Sunday. Shared ingredients are how a budget week stays cheap without getting boring.
A short sample grocery list
Dry and pantry: lentils, rice, pasta, canned tomatoes, canned beans, bread, oats, eggs, cooking oil. Produce: onions, carrots, potatoes, mixed salad, frozen mixed vegetables. Protein and dairy: chicken thighs, a whole chicken, cheese, tortillas. Most of this overlaps across meals, which is the point.
