Have you ever gone waaay to long between trips to the grocery store? Yeah, that just happened. I’ve been going non-stop for a couple weeks now so Daniel volunteered to go to the grocery store this week (so thankful!) Anyway, it may not look like much but I think you’ll be surprised to see that these ingredients actually stretch a lot further than you think they would. I’ll explain …
On the List
1 head of Cauliflower
1 Bag of Romaine Mix
1 head of Iceberg Lettuce (we like this for tacos AND wraps)
2 Tomatoes (only 1 pictured here)
1 Cucumber
3 Grapefruit (already ate one!)
2 Cans of Coconut Milk (he got Goya, which I haven’t tried before so we’ll see)
2 packs of All-Natural Bacon
1 Carton eggs
1 Sweet Potato (shredded)
1 Bottle of Balsamic Vinegar
2 Packs Spicy Italian Sausage (not completely Paleo but Daniel like it so we eat it together)
2 Filets
2 lbs Ground Beef
So, here are a couple of things I do to get the most from my groceries and have some convenient, just heat-them-up meal options.
Cauliflower – I make my Cauliflower Puree and combine it with other dishes throughout the week like pre-cooked ground beef (see below.)
Ground Beef – I brown this with some sausage mix from the Well Fed Cookbook and then combine it with Cauliflower puree.
Sweet Potato – This is SUPER easy if you have a food processor. Just another reason I am in love with mine. Just shred and you have an instant addition to eggs and bacon in the morning. It lasts for all my breakfasts throughout the week. It really goes far!
So, that’s the list for this week … what’s in your grocery basket?
