A Week of Groceries | Family of 13 Haul

Welcome to my weekly grocery haul for my family of 13! Another week, another grocery shop to feed this growing tribe. Included in today's grocery haul are some ingredients for making sausage rolls for my son's 2nd birthday. The original recipe can be found on my channel:

Prices, including Australian total, as well as United States equivalent are included below. Tips to save on your grocery shop:
- Purchase produce that is in season - it tends to be much cheaper than imported items (and fresher!)
- Include a 'fend for yourself' night (or two!). This helps to ensure that leftovers are used up, gives one a night off cooking a meal, and allows everyone to have something simple that they really enjoy.
- Use up leftovers. I often turn pasta dishes and Mexican night leftovers into pasta and rice bakes. Add a bit of extra cheese and you have a whole new meal!
- Purchase items that are on sale. In my part of the world, there are always half-price sales. I take this to mean that that's the actual value of the item. If I don't get something half-price, I tend to purchase the home brand equivalent, if available.
- Make a meal plan and shopping list
- Shop online. It's easier to keep track of how much you're spending
- Shop less often. If shopping fortnightly or monthly allows for free delivery and the ability to purchase in bulk, consider shopping less often than weekly.
Today I have purchased items for the following meal plan:
Homemade sausage rolls and salad
Marinated chicken drumsticks and vegetables
'Fend for Yourself'
Lamb Curry
Chicken soup with garlic Turkish bread
Vegetarian pasta
Leftover vegetarian pasta made into bake
