I started with cheddar zucchini wedges made with homemade baking mix and Farmer’s Market zucchini.
I moved on to a plum, apple, peach crisp. The extremely juicy plums were 50c a pound at the Farmer’s Market.
And I finished off the night with whole grain pizzas with fresh tomato sauce.
I get such joy out of preparing healthy, homemade food that costs a fraction of the price of chemical-laden processed food. I’m a food snob, but in a good way.
By matching up coupons with current sales, I got some great deals today. My total should have been $17.13. I paid $5.79.
Not pictured: the Vitamin Water Zero I drank at work. The only problem? Michael and I are going to fight over the chicken, spinach and artichoke pockets!
Michael and I wildcrafted two bags of wild onion while camping. How awesome to forage for food and eat it while camping? (Okay, I didn’t forage for the ground beef or cheese slices. I’m not that good!)
I had to make a trip to Kroger to use some Yoplait Greek Yogurt coupons I received through . They sent one free item coupon and ten 45ยข off coupons. Big Box Mart doesn’t carry this, of course. (New motto: “We have less of less stuff!”).
Top: Tuna snacks on romaine; roma tomato; cantaloupe; blueberries; cucumber slices; penguin soy sauce bottle (Thank you for the handy funnel!)
Bottom: shrimp ramen (My first experience… Loved it!); carrot; broccoli; Italian beans
This bento was so tasty, I think I might make the same one for Monday!
