Week 11 of Reluctant Vegetarian's Project: Food BudgetGoal: $75
Actual: $78.80
Yay for this week, but I'm running out of some staples. I expect to be over budget next week. This week's budget went to:
- Low-Fat Fried Rice and Hoison-Mustard Tofu
- Arabian Lentil & Rice Soup
- Salads with Miso-Green Onion Dressing
- Baked Tofu, Spinach & Brown Rice Bowl
- Sweet & Salty Maple Baby Carrots
- Baked Fries and Steamed Kale to go with a test recipe for the next Happy Herbivore Cookbook, plus two other test recipes (one was so fantastic, I had it for dinner four nights in a row!)
- Orange-Chocolate-Chocolate Chip Cookies
way to go lady! maybe you'll be right on budget and surprise yourself next week. you never know!
ReplyDeleteThe tofu that you made on the same post as the miso dressing... did you make that with one brick of tofu or two? I see it's in 14 pieces but the recipe calls for 8 pieces so I'm wondering if you made a big batch or went for thinner pieces and if so, why? (Was thinner better, etc.)
ReplyDeleteGood job on coming so close to budget!
