Menu planning is a great way to also save money. By planning your meals, you can make sure you buy exactly what you need, stick to your budget, and create healthy homecooked meals.
This works under the assumption that you keep certain pantry staples always stocked. (Here is a great site that has a pantry staples list: http://www.realsimple.com/food-recipes/shopping-storing/food/pantry-staples-checklist-00000000000197/index.html ) It also works under the assumption that you are stocking up on the good deals such as meat and cheese when it is on sale so that these are always staples in your pantry. For example, chicken is a great price at No Frills 1.49 for boneless skinless chicken breasts. I bought 8 packages and will be using them for the next month in my meal planning.
