$125 Budget Weekly Menu –See how I feed my family of six including 3 teens and a twelve year old for $125 a week!
I was able to purchase another ham for $1.49/lb so you will see lots of ham on the menu! My total spending for this week was less than $90 because we have a lot of food in the freezer and pantry (these items are marked with an asterisk*).
