Groceries for Jan 10, 2010

So, it's grocery day at our house. In an effort to encourage myself to post more here, I'm going to post what we got and what we're planning to use it for.

The recipes we've planned:

This should actually be enough that we won't do another large grocery trip this month. We've also already done most of our "specialty" grocery shopping for the month too. The total was $102 and breaks down roughly to $25 for produce, $2.50 for bread, $16 for meat, $12 dairy and the remainder for canned goods, seasonings, sauces and the like. I'll try do do at least one new step-by-step preparation. Let me know if there's any information you'd like to see.

In order to get a jump on the prep for the week, we pre-cooked and froze 2lbs ground beef with onion, 1 lb of chicken (shredded), 1lb of ground beef made into meatballs, and 2 cups of mashed potatoes. We'll see how much this helps.

Say What?

Frozen dumplings are one of my favorite snacks. We get most of ours at H-Mart, where not knowing how to read Korean is a significant disadvantage. Sometimes we find some amusement from the deal though. For example:
