61: How to Keep Your Grocery Budget in Check During The Summer Months (Even When You're Hosting)

Summer is here—and if the thought of feeding your kids all day long (plus hosting guests) makes your grocery budget want to scream... you are NOT alone.

In this episode, I’m breaking down exactly why grocery costs tend to skyrocket in the summer, what you can do about it, and how to create structure that saves you money and your sanity—without becoming the food police.

We’ll chat:

• Why snack attacks are blowing your budget (and what to do instead)
• Easy ingredient-based snack swaps that actually fill kids up
• The #1 habit that will help you stop the all-day pantry grazing
• My favorite budget-friendly hosting hacks for barbecues, out-of-town guests, and big summer dinners
• And why a little structure (and a lot of intention) can help you enjoy the season without overspending

Summer doesn’t have to mean financial chaos. You can feed your people, stay on budget, and still soak up these sweet days with your kids. 💛

xoxo,
Rachel
