Here's what we had in the refrigerator, freezer, and cabinets before I went to the store....
Cooked chickpeas, rice, spaghetti are in the plastic bowls
We keep peanut butter, seeds, cacao powder, sugar, agave nectar, etc. in this cabinet.
What I picked up from the grocery store.....
The bill came to $112.
What's on the menu for the next week?
Vegan Alfredo pasta
Smoothies
Seitan Wraps
I plan to post pictures of each meal.
I've learned a lot since my last $100 challenge and look forward to doing another one in the next few weeks.
If you're not familiar, last year I spent $100 on food for one week to debunk the myth that all vegan eating is expensive.
We typically spend about $650 per month on food, so $100 was really pushing it. We survived.
I'm feeling more confident this time around and look forward to sharing the recipes and our experience.

Here's a video of my last grocery store trip...
I spent $135 on this trip but several factors went into the cost...
*I had all 3 kids with me
*I purchased a lot of organic products
*I purchased some vegan pre-packaged food-always a budget buster
Without those factors, my bill could have easily been reduced by about $25.
