Thank goodness the woman isn't a celiac and can eat gluten. A gluten free diet can add $$$$ a month to your grocery bill! You can't buy just any thing because if it has had flour or gluten of any type used in its processing it will make you so sick for days you can hardly get out of bed. So the cheap foods so many of you are mentioning are off limits. On the other hand you can add corn tortillas instead of bread and tacos instead of sandwiches. Try hotdogs between corn tortillas. Yum. NOT! But you usually have to make everything from scratch to be sure it's gluten free and that's cheaper - so chili can be added to the soup list. I guess we can eat a long time on beans and rice and maybe an occasional salad.
