Shopping List for Oct Prep

Below you'll find the link to a Google doc shopping list for the week of October 13. It covers the ingredients for the first two make ahead-meals for November. Don't forget to check the list of basic kitchen staples found here. You'll need some of these for Tuesday's recipes.

On Tuesday, I'll post how to make and freeze these meals for the busy days of PiBoIdMo. If you like, you can buy double the ingredients. You can make two batches: one to freeze for November, and one to eat now. If you do, you'll have to add the dairy items to your shopping list. I normally don't add the dairy to the soup until the day we eat it.

The numbers in [] indicate which day the food will be used. That way, if you have eliminated any items from the Master Menu, you'll be able to cross those groceries off the list.
