Tip: Even though the grocery list might not always be exact for each week, it's helpful to have these lists written out because you will be able to anticipate what your family will need in a given month and can then buy various items on sale.


Lesson Learned: Yum, portabello mushrooms are an amazing substitute for hamburgers. Seriously, try it if you haven't. Shroom + olive oil + a little salt and pepper + grill = heaven!
