Ah, we have had several nice days of eating salads.

Earthbound boxed baby greens (the large box), was on sale, and I had coupons from the Earthday booklet. I picked up two boxes for $1 each.

The trouble with produce, is that you must use it or lose it, at least with baby greens.

The benefit...YUM. And, you can use up almost any leftover in a salad.

We've had spinach salads, taco salads, and last night, my personal favorite...

baby greens
mandarin oranges (delmonte fresh cup, free with sale/coupon)
chopped almonds (sale, coupon)
remaining half block of fat free feta (good protein, and it was on edge of date)
dried cranberries
raspberry dressing (Ken's, $2 sale and had a $2 coupon! FREE)
Bit of swiss and parmesan cheeses, fresh (sale, coupon)

DH figured out we spent 50 cents on each salad, and I'm talking two quart bowl salads. Served with a delicate broiled bread slice side.

Tonight, taking a break. DH will cook...well...we'll see. We had Taco Bell for lunch so probably light. But it will definitely be from the stockpile, and since he knows how to cook soup and tv dinners, it will probably be less than 50 cents each again. A bit of bread left.
