What did we eat this week, you ask? Started off the week with dinner at Bible Study, provided unexpectedly by a single friend who "just felt like cooking" :) Though it slowed down the fridge-clearing process, I certainly didn't complain about not having to cook! The rest of the week we ate:
- Leftover Pasta & Bean Soup
- Cheeseburgers, White Cheddar & Bacon Mashed Potatoes
- Salmon & Primavera Risotto
- Ceasar Salad (with organic Romaine and a Salad Finishers kit I found in the fridge!)
- Panera Broccoli Cheese Soup (variations: left the onions in the pan the whole time, frozen broccoli, pureed 1/2 so it still had some veggie chunks, no nutmeg b/c I forgot it) and bread
- Fiber One pancakes and 4 scrambled eggs
- leftover Hamburger Helper for my hubby, and I ate at my babysitting job
- leftover Broc. Chs. soup and leftover pasta w/ sauce
I'm still in for week 4! Honestly, I haven't even had to get very creative yet. I mean, I've made minor variations to recipes (like adding 1/4c skim milk to the half-and-half in this week's soup b/c I didn't have quite enough), but nothing too unusual. So far, I've been able to use my stockpile to create recipes I already had, and that should last for at least another week since I still have at least 4 recipes with all the ingredients on hand. I'll post an updated fridge/freezer list, with the NEW pantry list feature (finally got around to listing off what's there today) in the next few days. Thanks for tagging along!
Soli Deo Gloria
