The cheese and tomatoes were free! Featuring a sourdough crust, tomato-paste sauce, and a sprinkling of wild greens |
Dollar amount of food consumed this week: $21.98
Total "spent" so far: $191.45
Just three days (including today) to go! This week featured a nice amount of free food (especially cheese!), courtesy of the haul I got last Saturday (see last week's post), but we were also careful to use up the items we had already "bought" from our pantry. This was also the first week that I really began foraging from our garden in earnest— fresh kale, henbit, dandelion, violet, and plantain were a welcome addition to our meals this week!
In a few days I'll be posting our final stats as well as my larger thoughts about the challenge, but in the meantime, here's a list of meals we ate this week:
Snacks and drinks: Homemade crackers, hummus, carrot sticks, cornbread, leftover pancakes, peanuts, coffee, water kefir
Day 22: Peanut butter toast (Zach) and oatmeal (me), burritos, homemade pizza
Day 23: Leftover pizza (Zach) and oatmeal (me), cheese-lettuce-tomato wraps, burritos, homemade pizza with salad
Day 24: Peanut butter toast, leftover pizza, chili, toast with cheese
Day 25: Oatmeal, potatoes with sauerkraut, chili, toast with cheese, beans with rice and veggies
Day 26: Potatoes with cheese and sauerkraut, peanut butter toast, homemade pasta with garden pesto
Day 27: Peanut butter toast, leftovers, chili and cornbread
Day 28: Peanut butter toast, potatoes with pesto, rice with beans (chickpeas for me, refrieds for Zach) and red sauerkraut
