Week 1: almost complete

Tomorrow marks the end of week 1 of the All you grocery challenge.

Our OOP (That's Out of Pocket) cost for Week 1:

99 Cents Only on 6/24/10 $17.65 (I bought 2 dozen eggs, 3 bunches of Asparagus, Whole Wheat Tortillas, 2 bags of salad, 2 packages of chopped onion, hazelnut Coffee creamer, 2 boxes of fiber 1 bars, bottle of vitamin water, and a large ham steak)

Pat & Oscar's on 6/26/10 (lunch with friends) our portion of the bill came to $17.95

Total: $35.60

We ate at home every night except Friday, when we went to a friends house for dinner (taco night).  I brought 3 bags of salad to contribute to the potluck.

We brought our lunches from home, except for the few days when he had business lunches (He was at a seminar one day and had lunch with a mentor another- so no OOP for us), and we had a vendor bring my office snackies, which I made into my lunch on Friday (a wholewheat bagel and fruit- NOM!), and Thursday, the Chik-fil-a near my office opened and I had a coupon for a free chicken sandwich- so my lunch was free! WOO HOO!

Breakfast each day was pretty much the same each day for us: iced coffee or vitamin water, a piece of fruit, and a protein bar.

Our kitchen is still well stocked.  Tomorrow for breakfast we are going to have:

Egg whites scrambled with carmelized onions, ham steak, Greek Yogurt with fruit, OJ and coffee.

Right now, I'm making FiberOne Blueberry Muffin mix with banana instead of applesauce (I do the low fat variant).  I am making it it into bread instead, I think it turns out better.
