Day #7:

Here is my menu for today:

Breakfast:

I eat lightly usually a yogurt with cereal in it. John will eat the leftover meatloaf and any other thing he finds in the fridge.

Dinner:

1st plate:

Cream of squash soup (I’m making it with hot thai seasonings this time)

croutons

2nd plate:

Machaca Burritos- a Cailfornia favorite using 1 jar of my canned shredded beef, 3 scrambled eggs, cheese,  salsa, wrapped in a large flour tortilla

Quesadillas

Leftover salad

Fried flour tortilla wedges sprinkled with cinnamon & sugar

You may have noticed that I’m trying to finish off a package of flour tortillas in the fridge!

Supper:

Paella- we are still working through all the paella in the freezer in 2 portion baggies.

leftover salad

Money spent on groceries today: $0

Total spent the last 7 days: .50¢

What I have left:

8 eggs

2 potatoes

a bit of cabbage

2 tomatoes

1/2 of a zucchini

I also can still pick 2-3 cherry tomatoes each day from my garden.

We have guests coming on Thursday evening so I have to get a few things to buy for that, but I don’t plan on spending anything until then.

Got anything to say? Go ahead and leave a comment!
