Thanks to being well-stocked on staple items like meat, cheese, and eggs - as well as having leftover produce from last week to use up - this was a low-spending grocery week. I'm looking forward to using up some freezer and pantry items, as well as hosting Thanksgiving! What's on your menu plan for the holiday?
