Week 8: Project Food Budget

Week 8 of Reluctant Vegetarian's Project: Food Budget

Goal: $100
Actual: $141.15

I made up for being so under last week! Budget went to lots of staples and these meals:

• Tofu and Mushroom Scramble, Kale Chips, and Roasted Potatoes
• Hummus
• Pasta con Broccoli
• Caesar Salad with Eggplant Bacon and Caesar Chavez Dressing
• Black Bean, Eggplant Bacon, and Caramelized Onion Quesadilla
• Breakfast Sausage Patties
• Two test recipes for the next Happy Herbivore cookbook (so can't disclose name or ingredients)
• Vegan Mayo
• Mediterranean Bowl (roasted cauliflower, chickpeas, brown rice, and caesar dressing)
• Scallion-Potato Pancakes
• Hoison-Mustard Tofu

I did have one splurge: black rice noodles from the asian food mart in the Strip that I really have no idea what to do with. Maybe peanut noodles?
