Day Six Shopping - Total Cost 70p
I wanted to use up some of what I already had, so there was no need for much shopping today. I had planned to buy a pack of 6 small apples that had, according to Sainsbury's Online been price matched to Aldi, but when I got to the shop there was no sign of them. So I made the decision to just buy two apples, leaving myself with more cash to play with tomorrow.
Meals
Breakfast - Two Poached Eggs on Toast
I thought that this would be a nice change from just toast, and it was. It was pretty filling too.
Lunch - Two thirds of a can of peach slices.
I wasn't overly hungry, but when I peered in the fridge and saw the peach slices I thought that they would make a small but tasty lunch for me. It was exactly what I needed, although a tad sweet eating that many at once, maybe I should have rinsed them in cold water and not just drained them from the syrup.
Gosh, this made for a tasty tea, just what I needed after my light and fruity lunch. Made with 3 slices of my bread, half a tin of tuna and about a quarter of the grated cheese.
Supper - One of the apples cut into slices.
Leftovers carried forward:
240g SR Flour
DF Spread
Jam
250g Pasta
1 serving of Pasta Sauce
Mayo
9 slices of Bread
2 Eggs
150g Cheese
1/2 tin of Tuna
1 Apple
Cash - £1.13

The poached eggs breakfast would have been very filling. You are doing so well on this challenge.
ReplyDeleteIt really was, filling and tasty too. 😀
DeleteYour week is going so well.
ReplyDeleteI checked up at Aldi website for what I could get for £14 - It wasn't enough! Probably why I'm overweight!
I should be doing the same, ready for next week. 😀
DeleteCrunchy apples-yummy! Catriona
ReplyDeleteIt was delicious, just what I needed.
DeleteDay six and you're coming up with - for me at any rate - the most satisfying food so far!
ReplyDeleteWell done; I'd happily eat that ration on a non challenge day.
It was a very tasty day, that cheese and tuna toasty really hit the spot. 😀
DeleteI agree with Yellow Shoes above, that all looks tasty and it's very flexible - having had the satisfying breakfast a lighter lunch was needed. You mentioned the Apple pack you wanted was unavailable. The other day we had a shortage of blueberries locally, no fresh for love or money, I had to get my m in law frozen blueberries.

There's some very weird gaps on shelves in all our supermarkets at the moment. It's a bit disconcerting, I wonder if I'm just noticing it because I'm shopping each day, or has it been going on for a while?
DeleteI love seeing what you buy with your small budget 👏 Only 1 day left, I can't believe how quickly the week has gone!
ReplyDeleteIt really has shot by hasn't it. We've been so busy with work and Mum, so it's been good to have simple meal choices. 🙂
DeleteIt may be inexpensive but it all looks so delicious. I dearly love toasties. xx
