yup i was bored so i made something simple for dinner nothing to fancy just good down to earth food and relatively cheap to make too i mean that whole meal probably cost me $4.00 or so to make it. all i have to say is that if you are going to eat alot of pasta and are trying to keep costs down buy big and portion it out and freeze it thats what i do and it works great i mean right now i have porl, chicken, beef, and bacon frozen right now makes cookinh faster and will save you alot of money i will post a pick of all the crap i have in my freezer preportioned and then froze. wow... that is cheap if that's all it cost you. To buy a block of cheese alone here, it's a little more than $4. Anyway, very nice job. Looks good! I definitely need to start cooking things to freeze for later. And sweet pea, that's a pretty nice looking salad you got there! What kind of dressing is that?

And sweet pea, that's a pretty nice looking salad you got there! What kind of dressing is that? that is a raw vegan dressing with a sesame tahini base. i kinda got creative and went nuts and put everything but the kitchen sink in it. fresh squeezed orange, lemon and lime juice, fresh ripe pear, fresh chopped garlic, cold pressed olive oil and hemp oil, namu shoyu, raw honey, dried thyme and tumeric, and sea salt is what i remember. but i may have forgotten some things, lol. i like the way it tastes alot, but i'll probably never be able to duplicate it. i never prepare anything exactly the same way twice. that would spoil the fun. ;D

And sweet pea, that's a pretty nice looking salad you got there! What kind of dressing is that? ok straw, you missed one very important thing in there i buy it all at once in big so the cheese was 7$ but per use it is only about 25c-30c i have tried to make it so that none of my meals cost me more then 5$ to make but that is after portioning out like buy big and freeze to save alot of money and i promised a pic of my freezer so here you are 6 pork $2.00 each, 4 bacon $0.75 each, 6 chicken $2.00 each, 3 beef $1.30 each see what i mran by saving money this way lol

I thought it was like some mustard type dressing and I wanted to try to make it, lol. Forget that! Still sounds appealing....just way too complicated. I won't even attempt it, lol. You must be a great cook to get so creative. In other news...I made a super delicious casserole recipe I got from my mom. I was missing home and needed something familiar. Casseroles are fun...just toss everything in together and you don't have to worry about making anything pretty, lol.
