Week 18: Project Food Budget

Goal: $75
Actual: $59.39

This past week I continued to make quick meals that use only a few ingredients including

• Quiche with Greens
• Tofu Scramble
• Chickpea, Kale, Brown Rice & Sage Gravy Bowl
• Spicy Mushroom Stir-Fry
• Tortillas filled with a black-bean dish (a test recipe for Happy Herbivore) and Queso Sauce

Note that these are all Happy Herbivore recipes. If you haven't entered my giveaway for the book, enter it here!

The budget also went to ingredients for a dinner I'm hosting for friends this weekend, where I'll be making

• Spinach Linguine with Cilantro-Basil Pesto and Artichokes
• Veggie Salad with Mediterranean Olive Oil and Lemon Juice Dressing
• Golden Vanilla Cupcakes with Chocolate Mousse Frosting

I think it's great that I was able to make so many meals plus buy stuff for dinner with friends AND be under budget. This was a good week!
