Oh boy, today’s shop was pricey. I’m starting to notice how much more expensive most food is this far north. I think my grocery bill was close to $200 over three store trips. I did buy more expensive foods like maple syrup, some nuts and seeds, nut butters and new jars and a crate of tomatoes for salsa making tomorrow. I still need to send a small shopping list to someone in the lower mainland to get some items I can’t find here, like dried fava and black beans (!!), toothpaste (with no sls but with fluoride) and farro.
This week I’m making:
- Ymir Curry Bowl (I’m shocked I haven’t posted a recipe for this yet! It’s so good!)
- Parsley and Pumpkin Seed Pesto on steamed veg
- Southwestern Corn Pudding
- Red Lentil Cauliflower Curry
- African Bean Soup
- Sweet and Sour Squash with Sticky Saucepan Carrots
- Lemon Lentil Soup
On a side note, I also plan on making Jamie Oliver’s Nan’s Lemon Drizzle Cake to share with friends. Mm mm good…
