November Menu Plan

I try to plan my menus at least weekly but monthly is better for saving money and time. I plan from what is already in my pantry and freezers. And then this month buy the loss leaders and use them to plan for next month. It takes a little while to get to this point but in the summer we can so I don't buy nearly as much vegtables. I also track the sales and try and buy enough of any item to last until the next sale. I don't always make it on eggs and dairy but my goal is to buy nothing full price. Here is my menu for November, of course December will be easier since a lot of it is preplanned.
