Went grocery shopping hungry…never a good idea! Groceries in, quick muffin with muenster, turkey, avocado and romaine. Now to put said groceries away!
Local made plant-based ice cream at a little shop. Sooooo good! It doesn’t matter that it’s below freezing outside this was an apple crisp type flavour. Three-berry for kiddo.
Beef stock in progress using a couple of shanks. I probably needed one more, but they weren’t that cheap.
I had a sprouted grain mix and made oatmeal cookies. Not overly sweet which is nice. Added in some 70% dark chocolate chunks for good measure
Love a good deal! Happened upon a sale while grocery shopping and ended up with 15 lbs of meat for $20 - 10 lbs of chicken leg quarters (8), 3 lbs of ground beef and 2 lbs ground pork. All Iowa (local to me) sourced products. I’ve been trying to budget food costs better and this will help tremendously!
Wow, what a deal!!
It didn’t amount to much quantity-wise, but believe me when I tell you this is the silkiest, most flavorful beef stock I’ve ever tasted! I will look for sales and even ask my butcher for meaty bones to make my own stock in the future. And this will be a lovely addition to my dish tomorrow.
Nothing beats a homemade broth.
One more reason to get a pressure canner!
We have been talking about. I freeze mine right now…
Yup, so do I. And realistically I have plenty of room in my chest freezer so…
I am out of room in mine.

Meat, berries, veggies…i was ready for grocery inflation.
Welcome to my Asian kitchen again
Surf and Turf style seasoned with
Szechuan pepper, chili and thai bazil
3 sources of protein (beef, tofu, surimi shrimp)
and a lot of veggies!
Bon Appetit
Tell me about the Szechuan pepper…I’ve heard a lot about it’s spice quality being more like a sort of numbing or effervescent effect than the “hot” spicy I’m used to. What do you think? I don’t have a lot of experience with it but my mom gave me a bottle of the peppercorns and I’m curious about trying them.
