goal 2(h) - three-month supply

Our current goal is gathering our Three-Month Supply.

Previously:
Create a dinner menu.

Now:
Making a shopping list for your lunch menu.
[Remember to adapt your menu for three months.]



(Here is how I came up with my own shopping list)

My Dinner Menu:
A. Chili (need 78 servings - 5 servings each for 16 meals)
B. Black beans & rice (78 servings)
C. Burritos (78 servings)
D. Wild Rice Soup (78 servings)
E. Taco Soup (78 servings)
F. Chicken Alfredo (78 servings)
Green Beans/Canned Corn (465 servings)
Canned Peaches/Applesauce (465 servings)

Three months = 93 days. I need to feed a family of five for 93 days. That means I need to have 465 dinner servings (93 multiplied by 5). There are six meals on the lunch menu, so I divide the 465 breakfast servings by 6 meals (465 divided by 6). So, I need 78 servings of each dinner menu item.
