Budget friendly menu and ingredients for a family of 6
Here's a budget-friendly monthly menu for your family of 6, including 4 kids (ages 1, 2, 3, and 7) and 2 adults. I've adapted it to be cost-effective within the UK, using ingredients available at Morrisons, Asda, or Iceland. I've also included a shopping list for each week. ♡Week 1 Monday - Breakfast: Porridge with fruit - Lunch: Cheese toasties with tomato soup - Dinner: Spaghetti with meatballs and a side salad Tuesday - Breakfast: Scrambled eggs with toast - Lunch: Chicken fajitas - Dinner: Baked salmon with rice and steamed broccoli Wednesday - Breakfast: Yogurt with granola and berries - Lunch: Turkey and cheese sandwiches with carrot sticks - Dinner: Beef stir-fry with noodles and mixed vegetables Thursday - Breakfast: Pancakes with maple syrup - Lunch: Tuna salad with crackers - Dinner: Chicken curry with rice and peas Friday - Breakfast: Smoothies with spinach, banana, and yogurt - Lunch: Ham and cheese quesadillas - Dinner: Homemade pizza with various toppings Sat
