I really appreciate all the comments I received from my last post. THANK YOU! I am so grateful for the support and understanding and certainly for the advice.

Per numbers 5 and 8 from my list, I have taken the time to pick up some local veggies and fruit from the farmer’s market. I spent a lot of time on Sunday preparing foods for the week. I love always having something relatively healthy ready to go in the fridge both at home and at work.

All for under $19, I bought: basil, green beans, chives, shallots, tomatoes, squash, garlic, corn, blueberries, and peaches.

Some of my feast for the week included:

bowtie pasta salad with garlic, basil, tomatoes, and olive oil
basil pesto pasta salad with tomatoes
corn salad with avocado, tomatoes, juice from lemon and lime, and olive oil
corn off the cob with a tiny bit of Earth Balance, salt and pepper
mashed potatoes with Earth Balance, sour cream, soy milk, and chives
peach cobbler
spinach and greens salad with shallot, blueberries, dried cranberries, walnuts, and
a red wine vinaigrette

I am going to include the squash in a veggie lasagna and steam the green beans. Voila!
