Weekly Grocery Plan on a $60 Budget

PROTEINS ($19): Chicken thighs $8, Eggs $6, Beans $3, Lentils $2
CARBS ($16): Rice $5, Bread $3, Pasta $2, Oats $3, Potatoes $3
VEGETABLES ($12): Onions $2, Tomatoes $3, Peppers $2, Spinach $3, Carrots $2
ESSENTIALS ($13): Oil $4, Milk $3, Butter $3, Garlic $1, Spices $2

Total: $60 for 21 meals = $2.85 per meal

You do not need to eat badly to eat cheaply. You need a list, a plan, and the discipline to skip the snack aisle.

hold up, you're telling me I could be eating chicken thighs AND eggs on $60 a week? I've been spending like $80 just on takeout coffee and snacks lmao. but fr, the 'skip the snack aisle' part hit hard - that's where all my money disappears. do you actually make the beans from dry or canned? cause canned beans add up quick for me

I feel that so hard! Once I actually started tracking what I spent on coffee runs and snacks, it was brutal. The chicken thighs really are a game changer though - way cheaper than breast and so much flavor.

Actually impressed with how you balanced this. The lentils and beans are smart for stretching proteins without skimping on nutrition. I usually blow $40 just on produce alone, so this is helpful to see.

Solid list but I think you could save even more by swapping the chicken thighs for a whole chicken and breaking it down yourself. That usually gives you more meat and bones for broth.

I'd swap the spinach for cabbage - it lasts way longer and you'll get more meals out of it for the same price. $3 goes a lot further with cabbage.

This is really practical. Curious how much of the spinach survives to day 4 though - mine always turns to slime by Wednesday.

Smart move including beans and lentils in your protein section. The fiber from those will keep you full way longer than just chicken alone. How many days does this typically last you before you need to restock on fresh stuff like peppers and spinach?

The garlic is a lifesaver. You can stretch that one bulb across so many meals if you store it right at room temp.

This is solid - but I'd suggest adding a bag of frozen mixed vegetables for $2. They stretch further than fresh spinach and you can toss them into everything from rice to pasta to stretch meals out longer.

Good list but you're missing a crucial category - seasonings and spices! A $1 packet of curry powder or chili flakes can transform those beans and lentils into completely different meals throughout the week. That little investment goes a long way against taste fatigue.
