After going to the store shopping today, I am realizing that there are people in this city that can't afford to eat. Or if they can it is without eating meat. I am going to go back to purchasing a bag of groceries for the food bank once again. It broke my heart to see an older lady putting various meats back after looking at the prices. The chicken was relatively inexpensive but she put that back as well and when she turned away from the meat department I was sure she was almost crying.
I am really going to try and use up all that I can and even I had to put a few items in the meat department back and make a different selection.
Things are going to be stretched as much as possible as with prices rising and not going down, it could be us that eventually can not afford to purchase meat.
Monday
Warming up two ham pasties and serving them with salad.
Tuesday
Slow cooker stew. There should be enough to freeze as well.
Wednesday
Chicken veggie soup and grilled cheese sandwiches.
Thursday
Quiche to use up a bit of ham. Not using Swiss Cheese, but cheddar.
Friday
Salmon patties, rice, salad.
Saturday
Leftover quiche and salad.
Sunday
Chili and toast. I will make a big pot so as to have leftovers to warm up later in the week.
Sometime this week I will make the Cabbage Bread (hopefully tomorrow) and get those into the freezer. I am also tempted to try my hand at making some homemade pizza pops to use up a few items in the fridge.
Everybody have a wonderful evening.
God bless.
