WIS, WWA | last one for March!
What I Spent
Happy Friday! Time for some food chit-chat.
I spent:
- $110 at Aldi
- $47 at Safeway
So, $157, largely because I pressed the easy button too many times and went to Safeway. Ahahaha. Everything I bought at Safeway was marked down or on sale, but still...Safeway ain't no Aldi. 😉
What We Ate
Saturday
Zoe had a leftover sandwich to eat, and this was the night I did the dutiful chicken soup eating (which I mentioned in Tuesday's Five Frugal Things.)
Sunday
I opted for a breakfast-for-dinner night, and as you can see, Chiquita joined us. 😉
She did not, in fact, have any waffles.
Monday
We had an easy meal of cheese ravioli and a jar of red sauce.
Tuesday
I had a singleton work shift, which is a little unusual! Zoe had already eaten, so I pulled out a trusty bowl of raisin bran. 😉
Wednesday
I made a pan of Marry Me Chickpeas, which is a super-easy one-dish meal.
As I ate it, I thought it would also be very good with some cannellini beans instead of the chickpeas. I will try that next time!
Thursday
I made a green salad with chicken.
Friday
Today is day one out of three work shifts in a row, and I'll probably just eat a peanut butter sandwich when I get home.
I did pack leftover Marry Me Chickpeas for lunch today, though, so don't worry, I am getting my greens in (they have spinach!) 😉
The waffles look so good!
This week's eats:
Saturday: Potato frittata with spinach.
Sunday: I cooked a roast dinner. I had roast potatoes with veggie burgers, carrots and sauteed spinach and made a fruit crumble for dessert, which I had with vanilla ice cream.
Monday: Burritos with mixed veg, black beans, brown rice and sauce.
Tuesday: Chilli mac and cheese.
Wednesday: Leftovers.
Thursday: I had a plumbing crisis so ended up ordering pizza
Friday: I'm at my parents' place so whatever they decide to cook!
I struggle a lot with quick breakfasts - something I can eat in between meetings. How do you prepare your overnight oats? Could you please share your recipe?
