Once-a-Month Grocery Haul - July!

Because I don't love food shopping all the time and I LOVE to save money, I do most of our grocery shopping all at once - at the beginning of each month! See what we bought for food for the month of July for our family of 13. We do pick up milk from a farmer, bulk items from Azure Standard, some household products from Amazon, and one of our teenagers usually picks up our mid-month fresh fruit halfway through the month. But this is the majority of what we are eating for July!

Have 0 children, but you have given me so many organization and food preservations tips! Never would have thought to freeze the lime juice.

I love that you buy healthy food (and snacks). Yours is one of the only food shopping videos I can watch. 🥰

We grew up with a pool and loads of swimming and my Mom was forever making big bowls of popcorn for all the kids.

A good "cold weather" side for brats is "fried" cabbage and noodles. My mom would pan fry/saute cabbage in butter, add cooked noodles to the cabbage with salt and pepper for the last couple of minutes of cooking, then serve with brats. It's fairly cheap and simple and you can easily cook up the cabbage and noodles ahead and just reheat when you want to make brats.

My son makes omlets and adds a small amount of Gouda. I love them with mushrooms added in, actually I love those omlets when my son makes them for me💗

When it's about grocery haul videos you're my favorite 🤩😍 your fan from Egypt 🇪🇬❤️

What I love about you is that you cook real food for your family and teach them how to cook. It’s probably very easy to eat fast food and junk being such a large family. You really take a lot of care into what you feed them. Happy Independence Day!! ❤️🇺🇸

So you have kids now what a beautiful blessing

[caseybrewton]

I remember when you used to have to buy HUGE bunches of bananas and put them on that top shelf in your cabinet (the one you removed the doors from) to keep the kids from eating them so quickly! Love watching your channel. Large family life is intriguing to me as an only child that has only one child.

Oh & that avacado ranch salad is too!! Watch them so they don’t go bad in the fridge quick 😕

[suzanneford]

Get strawberries from a farm stand and make your own... and the jars are wonderful storage

[kelsijackson]

Smoked gouda is AMAZING for homemade Mac n cheese!

I have also found the salads at Sam's are WAY cheaper. Their new watermelon one is so good

[giselewalker]

Just a tip, you can grate the lines and lemons then juice them. I freeze the zest, use in all kinds of recipes

I strongly feel that God will be blessing you and your family with another baby boy. God has given me the gift of discernment and I was at a women's conference at church yesterday and when the topic of family and how children are a special blessing and my mind went to you and your family Sarah. When you referred to another child by almost saying you have 12 kids I felt that I was meant to share with you my random message from God (I also saw another baby after that so 13 in total). I admire you and Solo and I appreciate having strong Christian role models in my life. Thank you for making me feel connected since my health makes it hard to go out. Xx

Sarah, speaking of zucchini, a favorite of mine recently is zucchini (and/or yellow squash) pancakes. Just grated squash, eggs (beaten), a little salt and flour. I use sweet rice flour because I'm gluten free but I bet regular wheat flour works just fine. Use about one egg and half a largish squash per serving and enough flour to make it not dripping wet.
