2 small bags of salmon.

For my mini-challenge, used up 10.5/15.5 of the selected items.
Weekend shopping purchases were reduced price salad and yoghurts.
Last weeks online (food) shop purchases were mainly milk/cream and just a couple of fridge ingredients.
Two freezer drawers remain empty; the others are packed. It may take ages to empty these, although winter may deter me from my local shopping trips? The fridge and cupboards are also full.0 -
In: stewing steak, lamb steaks
Out: beetroot, roast spuds, broad beans, lorne sausage, tattie scone0 -

1 packet of herbal tea
Molasses
[STRIKE]Cocoa Powder (this is a bit of a cheat as it is nearly empty)[/STRIKE]
Nutritional Yeast
Potato Waffles
[STRIKE]Weetabix type cereal[/STRIKE]
Predictably I have made a meal plan for the week that doesn't include most of the remaining items, may have to rejig things.Debt Free Stage 1 - Completed 27/08/2020
