    Day 7 of feeding our family of 7 without a grocery Day 7 of feeding our family of 7 without a grocery trip. 👀

Layoffs are coming to my husband’s job, so we’re shopping our pantry, freezer & fridge and seeing just how long we can make what we already have stretch.

Tonight’s dinner: **[Marry Me Chicken over Rice]** 🍽️

Would you make this with what you already have?

Save this one for your next “I don’t want to go to the grocery store” night. 😂

We’re feeding our family of 7 with what we already have at home.

Tonight: **[black bean enchilada lasagna]**

I’m documenting the whole thing and seeing just how far we can stretch what we already have.
