The view to my side as I type this post:

What I Spent

This week, I spent:

  • $101 at Aldi
  • $18 at Safeway

And that's $119 for me for the week.

What We Ate

Saturday

I used a Panera gift card to get some sandwiches for Zoe and me. 🙂 A free meal + no cooking. Yes please!

Sunday

I'd made some mashed potatoes to use up some of my stash, and since Zoe wasn't here for dinner, I cooked some shrimp with a tomato pan sauce and poured it on top of the potatoes. Also, I cooked some asparagus.

And I made enough for a leftovers lunch for work on Monday.

Monday

I had prepped the chicken and sauce for bourbon chicken, so after work, I cooked the chicken, browned the broccoli, added the sauce, and that was dinner.

It was also lunch for the next two days.

Tuesday

I made a grilled cheese sandwich and called it good.

Wednesday

I got out of work kind of late, and when I got home, I ate a peanut butter sandwich on whole wheat bread. Also a banana. And some popcorn.

I did have chicken and broccoli at lunch! Plus grapes and oranges. So do not worry; my day was not a nutritional wasteland. 😉

Thursday

A day off!! Yay!

I made what was basically a repeat of the shrimp meal from earlier in the week, except this time I used fish.

Friday

Hmm. I need to check and see if Zoe will be here or not, and I will go from there!

What did you have for dinner this week?

  1. $167 at our usual store.

    Saturday—I made the black bean, quinoa, and sweet potato burgers I’d been wanting to try. They were just okay. There are more in the freezer; I’m going to try them with different condiments.

    Sunday—I babysat at my daughter’s house, didn’t have lunch, and ate leftover pizza when I got home at 3pm.

    Monday—I was not feeling well and was so happy to find chicken soup in the freezer! I heated some frozen brown and serve rolls from Tgiving to go with it.

    Tuesday—still sick, so Amy’s frozen lasagna.

    Wednesday—baked chicken thighs, couscous with walnuts and raisins, and butternut squash from the freezer. I’m eating squash more often now that I’ve learned you can just bake it whole in the oven.

    Thursday—leftovers from Wednesday

    Friday—probably more leftovers
