What we bought, spent and ate this week

Hello Dear Reader,

As I mentioned yesterday I spent the week using us lots of bits and bobs from the fridge and freezer, we also had quite a lot of leftovers which lead to not a lot of cooking all week, while I love cooking, it was heavenly not to come home and cook every-single-night. Last Sunday I made a beautiful Melanzane Pasta Bake out of 2 gifted + 1 bought egg plant, as well as a lovely Roast Pumpkin and Roast Sweet Potato Curried Soup, those two meals alone did us for 4 nights plus a couple of lunches.

I can see, in the near future, when our Son moves into his own home, that we will be eating this way a lot more, making a couple of meals and feeding, just the two of us, all week long. 😊

So, now I only have some roasted pumpkin, a couple of sheets of puff pastry and cooked silverbeet it the freezer to use up, I will make another soup out of some of the roast pumpkin and some feta, roast pumpkin and silverbeet savoury rolls with the silverbeet and puff pastry. They will do us nicely for lunches this week.

Now on with what we bought, spent and ate this week-

What we bought

What we spent
Northside Discount Fruit Barn-$20.72
Aldi-$37.30
Marjax Meats-$11.75
Coles-$5.44 + $3.90 later in the week for some Greek Yoghurt

Total-$79.11-WHA HOO!, so good to be well under budget and to use up good food already at home

What we ate
Friday-It was just me for dinner so I had leftover Honey Mustard Chicken, it was divine

Saturday and Sunday-I made my Easy Asian Chicken Stir Fry to use up the snow peas and bean sprouts from the previous week, love no waste

Monday and Tuesday-Melanzane Pasta Bake

Wednesday-Tempura Whiting with steamed Basmati rice and Choy Sum

Thursday-Roast Pumpkin and Roast Sweet Potato Curried Soup with home made garlic bread, I will be posting this recipe next week, it's a corker.

So that was our week, in food, that we had at our place. Over to you, what have you been eating lately, I would love to know.

Have a lovely day
