WIS, WWA | A pho-less week

What I Spent

After my pho spree last week, I am happy to tell you I didn’t get any this week. 😉

(For those of you who were asking, pho is a Vietnamese noodle soup, and you say it like, “fuh”.)

I spent:

  • $85 at Aldi
  • $40 at Safeway
  • $30 on a Hungry Harvest delivery

So, $155.

The funny thing is: I spent $70 on pho last week, and still, my food spending was about the same as this week. Hmm.

Not sure what to make of that!

What We Ate

Saturday

I made chicken sandwiches, using this roasted red pepper and basil mayo, which is so, so good. If you haven’t made it yet….well, you should. 😉

Sunday

I made a pot of chili, which we topped with lettuce, sour cream, chips, and cheese.

I also made a batch of butternut squash rolls, and we had homemade applesauce from the freezer.

Monday

We had leftover chili, and I sauteed some broccoli.

Tuesday

Tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches, because apparently, we are on a soup kick this week.

Wednesday

We all ate something different!

Lisey ate some leftover soup, Zoe ate a bowl of mac and cheese, and I ate some mashed potatoes topped with fried eggs.

Thursday

I made Swiss mushroom chicken except I did not add mushrooms because I no longer feed anyone who likes mushrooms! So…I guess it’s just Swiss chicken now?

We had toasted ciabatta rolls and a fruit salad on the side.

Friday

I think the girls and I might do a Friday night takeout meal together. 🙂

What did you have for dinner this week?
