    I am checking out your menu plan for the first time today and Oh My…where do you live?!? I’ll be over for any of these dinners. Puts my weekly meal plan to shame. 🙂

    I love how you use parts of one meal to use towards another meal. I need to do more of this….we end up with so many leftovers each week. You’ve inspired me to look for new ways to use up our leftovers!

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
