Hey all,

Tomorrow is payday aka go to the grocery store day! I like to keep my food bill cheap, because I am in college and rent is outragious in college towns, so I usually keep my bill around 50-70 for two weeks.

Here is my list of groceries for new, help me to add some new things. Most of what I get on the big trip every two weeks (paydays) is stuff for my lunch, so most of it has to be easily packed into to-go containers for lunch.

Frozen Chicken (Bag)
Sliced Cheese (Pepperjack)
Yogurt
Bananas
Kiwi (3)
Apples (sm. bag)
cottage Cheese (Fat Free)
Tuna (6)
Whole wheat pasta (Thin)

    Peanut butter is reasonably cheap and delish. I also always have soup and almonds. Both easy to take with you.

    add some veggies! or try some ground turkey, you can add it to pasta, or saute an onion with it and add some frozen veggies. Carrots and celery last awhile in the fridge and are a good go to snack.

    Ha, no thanks to the carrots and celery. I already have peanut butter around the house and my emergency cans of unsalted peanuts, and I always get canned soup I just forget to put it on the lists.
