Week Three.

Things have been so hectic lately, I've not had a moment to think! 

We're on the third week of trying to keep our food budget under £30. This week is slightly different. The haddock we had for tea this evening was given to us by my grandparents, with leftover veg. We're going to a friend's house for tea tomorrow, so haven't needed to buy anything for that. Wednesday and Thursday I'm doing a fruit juice detox, which includes only fruit juice, green tea and water for 48 hours, so I have only had to buy some fruit juice. This weekend we are going to a family wedding, so are away Saturday and Sunday, so it's left us with very little to actually buy!

So, our receipt for this week:

- bottle of water - 60p

- 2 quiches - £3

- Grapefruit juice - £1.60

- Tomato and mascapone sauce - £1.26

- Pizza - £2

- Blueberries (reduced) - 87p

- spaghetti - 78p

- 5 bananas - 76p

- Cucumber - 40p

- 1 x white loaf - £1

- Skips - £1

Total : £13.27

Amazing!

Our food menu for the week looks like:

Monday (today) - haddock with roast vegetables with an orange and honey sauce

Tuesday - out for tea :)

Wednesday - pizza (oh), juice (me)

Thursday - quiche with salad (oh), juice (me)

Friday - meatballs with spaghetti and tom sauce (oh), soup (me, from cupboard)

Our tea was very nice, especially as the fish was given to us for free!

 

The only problem is I love roast veg, and can never judge the portion - oops! Still, definitely got our 5-a-day today.
