I haven't spent any money on groceries in the past five days. We are eating out of the freezer, and I've been making bread. I had milk in the freezer, too.
Two days, I made pork chops and rice, and French dip, and three days, I made fajitas, from the leftover pork, and made beef and noodles, and beef and barley soup. Made two loaves of Cuban bread tonight. ( Tightwad Gazette recipe), and it was really good, on a cold, rainy night, with the soup.
If I can refrain from spending any money on groceries, for the next two weeks, the money in the food envelope, for the first week in January, is going into the challenge! I know I can do it! Fortunately, the freezer is full!
Thanks, for the recipes that have been posted recently. More would be great!

Good work! I've always wanted to try the Cuban bread myself but never got around to it.

The Cuban bread is so good, and easy to make, and makes the BEST toast.
