Food Plan 082309

Well, I think I did pretty well following the food plan last week.  There were a couple days of unexpected occurrences, but overall a winner week.

This week I plan on preparing the stuff I didn't get to last week plus a couple new ones:

1. Mixed Green with Artichokes and Olives with Avocado Dressing
1. Last week, the avocado never ripened even though I put it in a bag with an ethylene-exuding apple
2. Tapenade-Stuffed Chicken Breasts
3. Kalbi
1. to be served with steamed rice, kimchi, lettuce or sesame leaves and hot pepper paste
4. Mediterranian Herb Roasted Chicken

So I went to the store and purchased:

• rosemary: $1.29 for a couple bunches
• medium red potatoes: $0.60/1.23 lb
• zucchini: $0.41/0.59 lb
• red bell pepper: $1.29/0.52 lb
• green onion: $0.49
• green beans: $1.15/0.77 lb
• romaine lettuce: $0.89/head
• baby greens: $1.99/6.4 oz
• olive oil: $9.99/1L
• whole chicken: $5.29 at $0.99/lb
• whole chicken: $5.36 at $0.99/lb

Groceries this week, not including unexpected purchases throughout the week: $28.75.  To be fair, I had the beef frozen for kalbi in the freezer. That was $2.55 for 2.58 lbs.  So technically groceries this week is $31.30.  Not bad for two people.  Again, we'll see if there are unexpected purchases through-out the week.
