Food Clean Out Challenge Week 2

Okay so keeping a daily log is next to impossible when life is as busy as mine trying to hustle to survive.  I mostly stuck with the plan.
Since my last update I made what I call dump soup.  It involves dumping semi-random selection of caned veggies into a pot for soup along with a few other things.  I also made a peanut butter oatmeal bake that was Eh, but it made several breakfasts. But it did finish off a jar of peanut butter that just had a little bit in it.  So I used up like 6 cans from the pantry and a jar of peanut butter.  Although the week started to get a bit spotty when I ran out of my almond milk creamer.  I went a couple days on Vanilla almond milk, but that ran out too.  Fortunately I still have plain cashew milk for my cooking.

Today I did do my grocery shopping.  I spent a total of $28.49 at Kroger, but $7.60 of that was on pepper plants and doesn't count.

I got
Red grapes (yummy on their own or in a chicken salad) 88 cents a pound
10 oz of baby spinach that was on sale
Brussel Sprouts (3.99 and the most expensive food purchased today)
Sweet potatoes
Malt-O-Meal Cinnamon cereal as a treat for the teen
Plain Gelatin because the  teen wants to make her own marshmallows
Almond creamer was on sale and I had a digital coupon!!!
Spinach artichoke hummus on sale and I had a digital coupon
A bag of lemons off the 99 cent produce bin
2 pepper plants

So as part of my hustle this past week, I did end up pet sitting for 2 night and that meant that I was driving an hour after work to get to my pet sitting gig and grabbed burger that night.  The girl child ate left overs or cooked from what was on hand.

I did make my lunches of jar salads with leftover chicken from Wednesday night with the teen made dinner of raspberry chipotle chicken and boxed mashed potatoes.  Used up the boxed potatoes, that are usually just kept around to thicken my potato soup when I make it too thin.


So everything out of the pantry and freezer?  6 cans of veggies, a box of potatoes, a jar of peanut butter several frozen chicken breasts.

Tonight I am cooking a whole chicken, the brussle sprouts and baked sweet potatoes.    I am also making another batch of good Southern sweet tea.

This morning was another omlette very similar to last weeks, more cherry tomatoes as I harvested 5 from the indoor plant this morning.
