Spending over the last couple of days:
$4 bread
$10 martial arts
$5 soft drink for Pete
Running total - Food - $57, extras (budgeted) - $20.
For Friday's dinner I made the most delicious bolognaise sauce and Billy & I made fresh pasta to go along with it. Yummy! With the sauce, I used beef stock instead of the red wine, and also added a rasher of bacon and a couple of sliced mushrooms. It was really rich and tomatoey. Even better, the recipe made enough for half of it to go in the freezer for another night.
Saturday night Pete had a mate over to watch the football, so for dinner we made a couple of homemade pizzas (ham & pineapple, and a meatlovers style with ham, bacon, frankfurt, mushroom & tomato, plus a small garlic pizza). For dessert we made golden syrup dumplings and homemade ice-cream. The ice-cream didn't set properly, but it was nice with the dumplings anyway. There were not a lot of leftovers from the meal!!
Tonight was pork chops, mashed potatoes, squash, zucchini and carrots.
Lunches have been toasted sandwiches or leftovers.
Oh and someone asked about Mountain Bread - it's a flatbread that can be used for wraps etc. Quite versatile!
