As I blogged yesterday, I did the weekly pick up down on Gerwig Lane for this week’s Friends and Farms basket, then I headed over to Wegmans to get those K cups, olive oil, and a few other small items.
Of course, I never get out of there without at least two bags of stuff.
Like the fixings to make a Greek salad, since we got cucumbers this week in our basket.
I have learned to put extra items on my list by signing in on Sunday night and choosing what I know we will use. This week I added extra Asian pears, cucumbers and Bibb lettuce.
Our meats this week included turkey sausage, pork butt and chicken breasts. It was an egg week, and for me, the substitute yogurt for the eggs, and the eggs for the weekly milk, rounded out my protein and dairy.
I won’t need to purchase anything else to make dinners and lunches next week.
The pork, with the sauerkraut, and the pears will make a great dinner.
We also got frozen strawberries. Right now, I am enjoying refreshing drinks made of strawberries and seltzer.
I picked one of my favorite Breadery breads. Kalamata olive and rosemary.
We also had spring mix, sweet potatoes, onions, and broccoli crowns.
Dinner tonight was inspired by those cucumbers, and the mix of lettuces.
At Wegmans, I hit the olive bar and also picked up some Campari tomatoes. I had the last of the Bowling Green Feta in the fridge, so Greek salad got made.
The tuna. Pan seared with sesame seeds and sea salt. The last pieces of the tuna we bought last month. The fingerlings. A splurge at Wegmans. Since all I have in the house are the sweet potatoes from today’s basket. Half the plate. The Greek salad. A piece of that lovely olive bread.
A glass of pinot noir. What could be better for dinner?
