Cut off

Yep. I’m cut off. I’m sure you’re probably thinking I’m giving my poor liver a break. And you would be wrong. Actually, I get the most blog hits for my drinking related post, so I’ve been trying to come up with ways to drink more to increase my traffic. I’m completely joking by the way.

Nope, I’m cut off from the grocery store. My kitchen is full of food and I can’t justify buying anymore when the pantry is so over stocked. I’m avoiding the grocery store for 10 whole days! Really, we have enough food to avoid the grocery store for 2 weeks, but that seemed too long. I need fresh veggies!

I started my challenge with a recipe Huck’s sister made while we were home for Christmas. I’m not sure you can call this a recipe, though. It’s so EASY and makes so much food!

I used 1.5 pounds of chicken and we had enough food for over 6 meals.

This would be perfect for a taco bar at a party. One recipe could easily feed 6 people.

I didn’t make tacos this week, but I’ve used the chicken a few different ways.

Dinner is going to be fun tonight, too. We are helping Tequesta Brewing Co. with a charity event. Do you hangout at a bar to much when you they call and ask you to help at an event?

The food and beer pairing event is for Autism. I was told to bring my good camera, so I’ll be back tomorrow to share all the details.

Until then, I’m going to try to iron my dress for tonight. Wish me luck! It has pleats on the front, and I suck at ironing. Where is my Mommy and Grandmother, right now. They’re great at ironing.

  1. We do “Use It or Lose It” Week around here often. Clean out the fridge. Make it work. It actually makes me more creative in the kitchen, and I’ve had some real “keepers” come out of it.
    Oh, and I don’t iron! Scares me! Rumpled and Wrinkled, that’s my M.O.! 😉
    Cheers!

    1. I made of list of basic recipes, and my plan is to change them up some or do something a little different. And I ironed the dress and it wasn’t to bad. Now, I just do not have any shoes to go with it! #girlproblems! 🙂

  2. It’s nice when you can use leftovers again. Like your recipe for black eyed peas and greens. Hope ya’ll have fun with the event. Call me when ya can.

    1. It’s nice when you can take one meal and make it different ways, so you do not feel like you’re eating leftovers. Do you think Tab and Michael would eat leftovers then?
