Since I have two meals open, I did an average for only 29 meals. The average is $6.38. My disclaimer is that the birthday meal would not come out of the usual grocery money but out of birthday money. However, I did add it into this figure. Also, I did include the meatloaf entree into this but this was bought for us through my mom. So the true average figure is even a tad lower.
So an average daily amount we are consuming right now is $10.51 because I am including a $1 snack on average. Snacks are usually, frozen fruit, popcorn, leftover bread, chopped up veggies, apples in apple dip, peanut butter crackers, cheese crackers.... Now, count in another $1 a day for sweet tea and coffee. That is a total of $356.81 for a 31 day month, on average. This is really a high because the birthday meal is a lot and we have wings like maybe..... every five years. :D

Your menu looks great. I have never tried to create a whole months menu at one time. I have thought about writing one week and multiplying all ingredients by 4 to get a month. :) I have never heard of beaufort stew, but I'm going to look it up.

Your menu looks good. I am still adjusting our meals. We have had four at home the last few weeks so our groceries have gone up.
Have a wonderful day and I am glad that you are posting again.
