I was playing around on the net last week, wondering whether I could find budget meal plans for solo dwellers. I knew how much I wanted to spend - $50 week - and I wondered what was out there. I know Kerry has done a fabulous job with her $100 fortnight plan she posted last year (https://www.simplesavings.com.au/fora/4480100/?p=1) and her earlier one for two people, and I wanted to see what other offerings existed.
The search engine threw up this "Budget Cooking for a single person" on the New Zealand community and public health site. It breaks down the costings for a week's shopping, and includes recipes from The Great Little Cookbook, developed by Work and Income workers in NZ.
There are break downs for different food categories:
roughly 10% for breakfast items
30% fruit and vegetables
30-40% for meat, eggs, fish, and chicken
20% for milk, bread and grocery items.
(the categories are different to Kerry's)
The price range in 2017 was listed as $38-$43 NZD, which is approx $49-$56 NZD ($46-$52 AUD) today. To be honest I think that is not very reflective of 2023 grocery prices, even though it's adjusted for inflation. We know that grocery inflation has been higher than in some other areas.
I decided that I would give this one a go for 3 weeks, and see what I thought - how well the percentages work for me, what I thought of the recipes, did I feel hungry, etc etc.
First steps
I started by printing out the weekly plan, as well as The Great Little Cookbook. It's a great read, full of useful information. Most of it would be very familiar to SS'ers but there are still some good reminders in there, and I can see why it was developed and has stayed accessible. The recipes are what we might call common sense, family friendly, or traditional.
This plan doesn't represent the way I usually cook and eat, so this will be an interesting exercise indeed :)
The next thing I did was think about whether those percentages would reflect the way I like to eat, and came up with the following
Breakfast - 10% = $5
Fruit and Vegetables - 45% = $22.50
Meat, Chicken, Fish, Eggs - 25% = $12.50
Groceries - 20% = $10
It doesn't look like much really does it?

It's about time I updated this blog here.
As it was September 2011 since I lasted post, not that I have been around the place just not writing here. What have I been up to you may ask!
There are a few indexes that I keep tabs on and making a few recipe threads while I am at it.
Here is the list of some of threads that I have put indexes into or keep tabs on for updated.
.
Indexes that I have index are many, here are a few of them and a lot are in the older threads grouping now which may have links in the Grocery Challenge threads that I put up each month.
Here is a list of some the indexes that I have made over the years.
These links will take you to the page that my index is on first.
Ctrl +F the recipe or ingredient in box that comes up then click through the pages until find what you are looking for. I do make these indexes for 100 page viewing.
Note: Where you see **** I didn't post the index, someone else has done so.
