I eased my way back into a more regular diet this week. Yay!
What I Spent
I spent:
So, $105.
You know what I didn’t buy at Aldi? These ice cubes, even though they were on clearance. 😉
I guess they’re some type of super pure ice that people use for cocktails. But even if I drank cocktails, I don’t think I could bring myself to pay for four ice cubes. Ha.
EVEN on clearance. 😉
What We Ate
Saturday
I had gotten a little behind on my produce-eating, due to being sick. So, I gathered up all the tomatoes, cut out any questionable spots, roasted them with some onions, and then turned them into soup.
And I ate a grilled cheese sandwich with the soup.
Sunday
Zoe and I used a gift card for a Panera pickup, and I got some Mexican street corn soup. I do not normally eat much soup in the summer, but it felt easier to manage than most other foods.
Monday
Due to my digestive issues, I was an accidental vegetarian for a week. But on Monday, I decided to try eating meat, so we had burgers. And all was well.
Tuesday
I wanted to make some fried mush, which I hadn’t made in eons. But sadly, my cornmeal had expired in 2023. Yikes! It really HAD been a while.
Sooo, I got a new bag of cornmeal, and I probably will store it in the freezer just to keep it fresh.
Anyway, we had fried mush and waffles for a breakfast-for-dinner meal.
Wednesday
I made some tortilla soup, a very throwback recipe! I thought it would make a good packed lunch for work the following three days.
I really need to update that post because it doesn’t even have a printable version. It’s from the olden days. 😉
Thursday
I worked, and had overnight oats for breakfast, tortilla soup for lunch, and yogurt with a peach after work.
Friday
Another work shift day, so a repeat! Overnight oats at breakfast, soup for lunch, but this time I might have cold cereal after work. I’ll see how hungry I feel.
What did you have for dinner this week?
