- One green bell pepper (I bought too many for blog night)
- One butternut squash (we were supposed to make it on Christmas, and I think it *might* still be good)
- One large tub of plain yogurt
- Some rapidly going-south basil
- A bag of questionable but potentially saveable spinach
- 3/4 tub of sour cream
- 1/2 jar green olives left over from New Year's Eve
- Parmesan cheese
- A bag of soup bones
- Two bags of chicken thighs
- A bag of grilled chicken breasts
And in the pantry:
- A bag of tortilla chips
- A package of rice noodles
- Half a bag dried black-eyed peas
- Some potatoes
- A package of gnocchi
- A bag of instant potato soup
- A can of cream of mushroom soup
- Monday: Pho bo (soup bones, basil, rice noodles)
- Tuesday: Slow cooker butter chicken and curried potatoes (chicken thighs, yogurt, spinach, potatoes)
- Wednesday: Tipsy chicken with scalloped potatoes (bell pepper, chicken thighs, olives, cream of mushroom, potatoes, sour cream, soup mix)
- Thursday: Gnocchi with butternut squash sauce (Gnocchi, butternut squash, spinach, Parmesan cheese)
- Saturday: Taco salad with black-eyed pea dip (tortilla chips, grilled chicken breasts, black eyed peas, sour cream)
Otherwise, that's the plan for this week. My usual shopping budget is $230 a week (I know yikes! There are six of us so food shopping is a big expense) so the goal is to come in below that, preferably considerably so. I'll let you know.
