Angel Food Ministries

We get some of our food from a program called Angel Food Ministries. They have distribution sites all over the U.S. You can visit www.angelfoodministries.com and check out the November menu & find a site near you. I was leery about this at first, but we have gotten the main box for the last few months and it has been very good. One month I actually bought two main boxes because I knew we would use everything in it. The object of the program is the main box is $30 and it is supposed to feed a family of four for a week. There is meat, frozen vegetable, some times pasta, instant potatoes, etc. We also like it when they have the chicken tenders special - a 10lb box for $18.00 (and they are sooooo yummy!!!). It is not always the "healthiest" kinds of foods, but usually you can make pretty well rounded meals from what you get. There is always a dozen eggs and two pounds of frozen vegetables. I have really liked adding this to my grocery shopping. I visited the site and here is the November menu:

1.5 lb. New York Strip Steak (4 x 6 oz.) 3 lb. IQF Split Chicken Breast

2 lb. Baby Back Pork Ribs 2 lb. Chicken Chunks

28 oz. Jumbo Charbroiled Beef Patties with Gravy 1 lb. Smoked Sausage

1 lb. Ground Turkey 1 lb. Green Beans

15 oz. Cranberry Sauce 7 oz. Beef-Flavored Rice & Vermicelli

20 oz. Shoestring Fries 32 oz. 2% Reduced Fat Shelf-Stable Milk

All for $30!!!!!
