-low fat string cheese
-1 cup grape tomatoes
I don't much care for eating tomatoes by themselves. I put them on the counter while I was unloading the dishwasher. Every time I put something away that was near them, I grabbed one and popped it in my mouth. They were gone before I knew it :)
The Lunch Menu:
-sausage lentil stew
-6 wheat saltines
We were supposed to have romaine lettuce instead of saltines, but I'm quickly approaching the lettuced-out stage. Hoping to ward that off before it happens.
My Response:
new to me foods: lentils
This was made with Italian herb chicken sausage, green peppers, onions, garlic, chicken broth, tomatoes, and lentils. It was very good!
His Response:
He liked it!
The Kids' Response:
They each tried one bite, but none of them liked it. 3 of them had ramen and one had a PBJ sandwich.
Got groceries for the next 2 days. $36. It looks like I'll end up averaging about $100 a week, which is almost what we were paying for "normal" food. The kitchen is very well stocked with kid-friendly foods, so I haven't had to buy any groceries just for them. Sooner or later that stuff's going to run out, which will increase the grocery bill slightly. But so far, it's not as expensive as I feared (with the exception of that first start-up trip)
