After almost 4 years of weekly meal planning, I feel like I have gotten into a rut. We sometimes eat the same meals more than once or twice a month. I really want to try new meals, but sometimes I feel like the effort it takes to cook something new and exciting isn't that easy while taking care of a busy family. I was very excited when e-mealz.com contacted me to try a superscription to their weekly meal planning menus.
Here is how it works! You pay $1.25 per week or $5 a month for a subscription to the site. You choose what meal plan you want from the list below.

We chose from the Specialty Meal Plans for Two and chose the Low Fat Walmart plan, since we try to eat low fat and since I shop at Walmart. There are tons of meal plans to choose from...regular, low fat, portion control, low carb, gluten free, and vegatarian. You can choose plans that feed two people or plans that feed a family of 4-6. You can choose any store for your shopping list, or you can choose list specific to Walmart, Kroger, Publix, Aldi, or Ralphs depending on where you shop.
Then, you print that weeks meal plan and grocery store list. This is our menu and shopping list for this week!


The shopping list tells you the meal number for the ingredient, the section of the store, the item you need and the price. It also gives a total of how much it will cost based on the store you choose. This Walmart shopping list for 5 meals for this week, should cost us right around $40! Told you it was budget friendly! :)
Then you just take the list to the store and shop. I tried this last weekend. It made shopping SOOO easy. I just added a few basics that we buy weekly to the list and then headed to the store and quickly got all of our groceries for the week. It made shopping so much easier and I knew I had not accidentally left an ingredient off of my list because the list was made for me!
The meals are SO good and so easy to fix! Here are a couple of ours from this past week.
Grilled chicken and onion kabobs, couscous, and peach, cucumber and mint salsa.
Grilled brushetta chicken, brown rice and steamed veggies. (This meal was supposed to have bread sticks as the carb, but we wanted a healthier option so I made brown rice)
E-mealz is offering one reader a 3 month subscription to E-mealz!
