Food Storage for $5.00 a Week
6-29-03

Week 31: 7 boxes macaroni and cheese

This plan should be enough to sustain two people for one year. For every two people in your family add $5.00 more and double the amount of the item you are buying that week.

If you can not afford more than the $5.00 a week for the whole family at least do the $5.00, it's a start.

Remember to mark the date on an item when you buy it and use the oldest first.

Here is one that my family has always liked, and it's quick to prepare.
