My Ultra Awesome Super Proud Extra Efficient Weekly Shopping List of Healthy(ish) Meals

So this is my shopping list for the week. I've been feeling extra broke the past few days so I was SUPER excited and proud of myself when the cost of the meals was at exactly $40 for six meals. Some of the things that we already have are large amounts of individually frozen chicken breast, a big ol' bag of brown rice, and that's about it. I also tried to “re-purpose” some of the more expensive ingredients (if you will) like the cream which will be in quite a few meals. Also, it should be noted that these portions will be for 2-3 people because there are only 2 of us to feed. I hope to be adding more detail about the enchiladas and stuffed roasted poblano peppers since I have not made either of those before. Hopefully I'll be able to get back into the swing of writing consistently. See you later this week!
