Menu Plan: Week 1 of no spend challenge
This is the first week of menu planning during no spend months. I am already enjoying the challenge of trying to come up with a variety in our diet with the rationing of food groups that I am doing. I also am trying to get lots of protein into my diet due to blood sugar issues. On Friday I received my order of coconut flour and have begun experimenting with making baked goods with a lower carb count. I hope to post some recipes and results at a later date. Lots of beans & grains and a few new recipes this week…
