The Goal:

Feed my family of five, filling and relatively healthy meals for a week shopping at only one major retailer, this week is Coles.

The Rules I Set for myself:

• Everything has to be bought from Colesin a whole amount, not counting half a bag of something. 
• I’m allowing myself basics like cooking oil, butter, salt, pepper, spice, and condiments like soy sauce.
• I am working our prices off these items and I will make enough to feed 5 adults, but I will substitute gluten-free options for my portion in relevant meals.

The Shopping list:

Whole Chicken 4.50/kg	$9.78	Cans of Red Kidney beans (400gm) x 2	$1.60
2kg Rice	$2.80	(Frozen) Coles Mixed Veg 1kg	$2.20
Pasta 500gm	$0.80	(Frozen) Coles Corn Kernels 1kg	$3.20
Spaghetti	$0.80	Cauliflower Rice (300gm) (Fresh)	$1
Shredded Cheese (250gm)	$4.60	Zucchini (Fresh)(131gm)	$0.46($3.50/kg)
Sausages 24 pack	$12	Pumpkin (Fresh)710gm	$0.71($1/kg)
Can of Lentils (400gm)	0.80	I’m Perfect Carrots 1.5kg	$1.50
Can of Diced tomatoes (800gm)	$1.50	I’m Perfect Onions1.5kg	$1.90
Textured Vegetable Protein (400gm)	$4	Total =	$49.65

Some of these were specials, like the whole chicken but you could swap that for a 2kg bag of chicken legs for $7.

I tried to stay with everyday items that should be cheap every week.

The Meal Plan:
