$18 A Day-And So It Begins...Prepping

This is a far from easy task.  I mean really first you plan, then you budget, then you shop.. But what comes next is what I love about cooking.  Prep time.... Cut the tomatoes and slow roast them with a little salt (for pasta sauce), cook the sausage, cut the peppers, cook the rice (for burritos), mix the bread dough.  


I do have to say....YUMMMM

All of this work also included a calculator. So if this adds this then it costs how much?

Am I with the #SNAPchallenge budget?

For Monday breakfast, $1.52 (grapefruit, toast, pop tart) Lunch, .49 cents (burrito); dinner, $5.33 (pasta and sauce, bread, cheese) ..  Oh, don't forget drinks .03 cents for 8 oz glass of ice tea, 12 cents for 8 oz glass of milk.    

The grand total is $7.94

Until tomorrow
