Menu and Food Budgets - Last Week

Okay, so this post is late... wayyyy late. I did track and make a menu, but for whatever reason I didn't get a chance to post, so there will be two budget and menu posts today.

I (still!) haven't finished our budget for this year. I'm working with $100 per week for groceries, plus $200 for Costco. We'll limit meals out to $200 per month. Here's the scoop on last week's food budget and eating out:

Groceries:

Safeway: $73.29
Remaining for this month: $100.30

Eating Out:
none
Remaining for this month: $123

Costco:
Still haven't gone yet...
Remaining for this month: $200
Here's the menu we followed for last week:

Sunday: Thai Chicken
Monday: Chicken Thighs with mushroom and thyme sauce, rice, veggie
Tuesday: Roasted Salmon with tomatoes, leftover rice.
Wednesday: Home-made burgers!
Thursday: Cassoulet (froze half for later)
Friday: Lasagna (froze half for later)
Saturday: Dinner out with Mom and brother. Indian food hmmmmm.
Sunday: Leftovers! (love leftovers!)
