Now…Decide How Often Your Family Will Eat Each Meal:
To
the left of each meal above, write how often your family will eat that meal
in 1 month. To calculate for leftovers or eating out, use 20-22 dinners in
a 30 day period.
-
Now…Make a Shopping list…Do the Math- Multiply your ingredients
list for each meal by the number of times your family will eat each meal in
a month.
*For
a 3 month supply fill out three of the above forms using a variety of meals
that suit your family’s tastes and needs.
