Does your food bill blow your budget? Today you’ll learn how to master meal planning to save you a ton of time and money!
How to Save with Meal Planning
One of the biggest bills couples have – especially busy ones – is their food.
Between eating out and buying food for the family, there doesn’t seem to be enough money to cover everything.
We discussed saving money when eating out a few episodes ago. Now we’re looking at the other side -mastering your groceries and meals at home.
I asked my buddy Jen Smith to come on board. She’s the creator of Saving with Spunk and the author of the new book Meal Planning on a Budget.
In this episode we discuss:
- how meal planning doesn’t mean leftover every night
- the magic of slow cookers
- how seasonal and sales eating is lower your bills and be better health wise
Hope you enjoy!
