$21 Weekly Food Challenge - Day 3
April 27th 2010 23:51
My chocolate cupcakes made from ingredients that normally just sit in the pantry.
The kids had their favourite for breakfast this morning - peanut butter cigars. Simply a slice of bread with peanut butter on it, rolled up to look like a big fat cigar.
My younger boy decided he was still hungry and wolfed down two rice cakes as well. (He loves them).
When I dropped in to see my hubby in the cafe after dropping the kids at school (with a lunchbox of a sandwich with leftover meat, the last orange from the fruit bowl and the cheesy vegemite rolls) he gave me some ham and five rissoles that were past being able to sell them as fresh in the shop.
So rissoles, spinach and packet pasta for dinner it was. There was certainly plenty of bbq sauce.
Hubby brought home some low fat milk that we had run out of so the first spend from our $21 came to $3.50.
I spent the afternoon making chocolate cupcakes and a chocolate cake as there was plenty of flour, cocoa, icing sugar, eggs and butter. I got the recipe straight from the cocoa packet.
The kids were very excited to be getting cupcakes for afternoon tea.
Hubby always complains that I don't buy enough sweet things as he likes to have something sweet with his cup of tea after dinner. He was very happy with his slice of chocolate cake last night.
