Mum shares the secret to keeping her family at her $ 95 Aldi Shop for two weeks

When you feed a growing family it seems like a food shop ungrateful job.

As soon as you have done a great shop, it seems that you have already fulfilled some requirements.

However, a mum revealed how to feed the family for two weeks on an incredibly low budget.

Megan Kent, from Stock-on-Trent’s remarkable two-week meal plan, allows her to make breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks for herself and her partner and their three-year-old at Aldi for just $ 84.14 (approximately € 95).

She took it Feed your family on a budget Group to share her shopping list and meal plan, helping other families reduce their expenses Birmingham Live.

What’s her secret? In a nut shell, food preparation and planning! Megan creates a two-week plan to include breakfast, dinner from the weekend brunch, dinner and the weekend treat.

Posting online, she explained: “Breakfast is not something I buy in this shop, but what I buy in bulk as a grain will last forever.”

She advises you to use leftovers and think intelligently to move your diet further. For example, a chili cone corn for dinner will allow you to use the leftovers for nachos the next day.

Megan also starts each week with a batch of cooking soup, which includes eating sandwiches or toast and instant noodles at lunch.

The list also mentions a variety of fruits and vegetables and essential items on the shelf, such as tuna, beans, packet rice, noodles and tortilla wraps.

Once every two weeks, the list includes frozen chips, sweet potato fries, a kilo of chicken breasts, shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, bin bags, kitchen rolls and toilet rolls.

That’s not because Megan was able to include snacks and treats like biscuits in her budget, such as yogurt, ice cream, crisps, fruit plus, and friendly and fun drinks.

The only thing I haven’t seen yet is breakfast cereal, which Megan buys in bulk to save more money
