Great blog! I was wanting to know from any of you if you work from a food budget and if you do how you set your budget. I feel like I spend way too much at the grocery store and never have what I really want in the house...does this happen to anyone out there? Do you guys set your menu for the week and then make your list and only buy according to your list? Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
ReplyDeletethe food budget question is a GREAT one. I will put that on my list for an upcoming post so we can get some good ideas... thank you for a great question! and of course, if anyone wants to share now, go right on ahead! :)
ReplyDeleteOk, I'm late, but I wanted to post my menu as a record of sorts :)
ReplyDeleteSunday: Corn Chowder (used one of the recipes posted here)
Monday: Croque Madame (croque monsieur has no egg on top) this is a fancy grilled sandwich from Martha Stewart. I really like it 'cause it has gravy :) Here's the recipe:
Bechamel sauce: 2 TB butter, 2 TB flour, 1 cup milk, 1/2 tsp, pinch of nutmeg, pinch of cayenne peppper, pinch of pepper
To make sauce, melt butter then add flour and whisk. Cook until it has thickened but not browned. Whisking, slowly add milk. Continue to whisk until thickened. Remove from heat and add rest of ingredients.
Make sandwich: smear bread with mustard/mayo, add ham/turkey, and cheese. Butter outer sides of bread. Grill sandwich until browned and cheese has melted.
Top sandwich with bechamel sauce and grated cheese. Put in broiler until cheese is melted.
Top with egg if desired.
Tuesday: Cuban Simmer Sauce with Chicken, Rice, and Black Beans
Wednesday: Stir fry
Thursday: Pasta with white sauce, peas and bacon.
Friday: Left overs
Saturday: Date night!
