Two of my crazy kids helping me grocery shop |
Try a Meal Kit Service
While meal kit services started out quite expensive, cheaper options are becoming more readily available as the food kit service industry is gaining popularity. Most services let you customize your plan for your lifestyle and budget, based on how many people you need to feed and how many meal kits you would like per week.
Buy Ingredients in Bulk
For ingredients that don't need to be used up in just a few days or a couple of weeks, you can often save money in the long run by buying these ingredients in bulk. Try looking for a bulk organic ingredients provider that can deliver high-quality ingredients in bulk so you don't need to shop for them as often.
Freeze Leftovers Ahead of Time
Many people don't like leftovers after they have already been cooked and put in the fridge. One simple way to get around the feeling that you are always eating leftovers is to make the leftovers last longer so you don't feel like you're eating scraps. Try making double the portions you normally would and freezing the parts you know you won't need. Two or three weeks from now, that meal is going to seem like it was just freshly cooked.
You don't have to completely downgrade your diet to macaroni and cheese and rice if you want to save a few dollars here and there. Grocery shopping doesn't have to be super expensive if you know a few tricks to beat the system.
