Grocery Product Update for this week




 First off I want to say the Sugardale Pepperoni is AMAZING! It has a much better flavor than the Hormel I have been purchasing for years.   The garlic bread pizzas were so good this time. Hubby said he wished he could have had more. 😊


Second the refried beans from the Dollar Tree were very good.  I will definitely be stocking up on them. The tortillas were quite good as well. Definitely a repurchase on them as well.  The stir fry veggies from the dollar tree 👎. Nope. They weren’t bad but next time I will just purchase fresh at my local grocery store.  Fresh aren’t soggy and watery. 

That’s my 2 cents on the products I purchased so far. I know the spaghetti will be good. Can’t go wrong with Prego and angel hair pasta. 

Thanks for stopping by. Until next time 👋

This Week in the Kitchen - May 19, 2023

 So back in 2020 I bought a bread machine off marketplace thinking I was going to be a bread maker.  I tried a few times, but the bread was just blah and ok.  I've had a bread machine before, 3 machines, i think, to be exact, so I'm not sure why it wasn't working for me this time, except maybe I was out of practice. 


Fast forward to this week.....I decided to try again.  The generic bread here is $1.50 a loaf,  I can make it way cheaper, and with less preservatives.  I searched youtube and finally decided to try this one.  It turned out nice sized and feels soft.  We haven't tried a slice yet though.  I think it will be a good recipe.  I'll try to remember to report back next week on how it was and how we liked it.


Monday:
lunch: sandwiches and chips 
Supper: rotini with leftover spaghetti sauce and sausage 

Tuesday:
Lunch: sandwiches and leftover rotini
Supper: we were out of town and ate at Del Rio

Wednesday:
Lunch: Me Left over Del Rio, Hubby leftover rotini and a sandwich
Supper: Sweet & Sour chicken

Thursday}
Lunch: Me sandwich, Hubby leftover S&S chicken 

The rest of the weekend we will eat at work
