oooohh, Jill. The local pizza place makes the best spinach. their Italians, and they throw in onion, garlic and red pepper flakes, saute it.
it's funny, compared to how much we used to spend in take out meals and eating out (and not at especially expensive restaurants), buying the fresh produce is much cheaper. I find it really hard to eat out a lot and stay on program, so now we eat most of our meals at home, or homemade. |
I don't like cooked spinach--I've tried it from both fresh and frozen, and I just can't handle it. I do use frozen chopped spinach in things like eggs, pasta sauce, and noodle side dishes, but I can't eat it alone. So, back to the "picky eater" thing...:p
Just got back from grocery shopping--I saved $14.14 by buying things on sale, but I still spent $59.83, and I didn't think I was even buying much since I had stopped for a few things earlier in the week :dizzy: The only meat I bought was a package of turkey sausage ($3-something), and the only produce I bought were 2 pounds of strawberries (on sale for $2.99/lb, regularly $5.99/lb), some bananas (never a huge expense--I bought 2 small bunches for less than $3, I believe), and bagged salad mix (I buy the bags because I don't use enough of the other veggies to buy them all separately--on sale 2 bags for $6). The only things I bought that I don't normally buy were orange juice (on sale 2 for $5--mine is the reduced calorie/sugar kind) and ice cream (also on sale 2 for $5). I guess it's just the little things that really add up...I bought tomato sauce, tomato paste, salsa, cheese, milk, cooking spray--looking at my receipt, only 4 or 5 items I bought were NOT on sale, and I don't feel I bought anything particularly extravagant. If I had, I would be more at ease about the price, ya know? But I'm not picky about having certain brands or anything outrageous, so I'm not sure how else to lower my bill. Oh well...I'm sure if the time came to really have to cut things from my budget, I would figure something out :^: |
