It’s been a while since I shared a meal update so I thought I’d do a show and tell of the meals we’re been eating lately.
We aren’t heavy eaters. Breakfast usually consists of oatmeal, yogurt, toast or the occasional bowl of cereal.
Linner is the main meal for us, with a light snack later in the day {for me that means tea and a cookie, the HH usually goes for nuts, cheese, fruit or something random}.
At the rate we’re going, by the time we’re in our 70’s we’ll probably just be eating a spoonful of peanut butter and a banana each day. HA HA HA.
The body is amazing, isn’t it? It needs what it needs and that’s about it.
Last year it seemed like all we ate were those Mediterranean Crunch salad kits from Costco.
But after a few not so great bags, and the “fresh” produce not being so fresh, we’ve kind of given up on them.
For the time being anyway.
Avocados seem to be the hot item for 2026. We’ve been buying at least 5 a week.
A rotisserie chicken from Market Basket is another must have this year. At only $4.69 each, it’s actually cheaper {and tastes better in my opinion} than buying one and cooking it at home.
Bananas and rotisserie chickens, they’re the two best bargains at the grocery store if you ask me.
Who needs tortillas when you can just put it all in a bowl?
The stuffed shells from the Costco freezer section are another new discovery this year.
Mississippi pot roast and potatoes.
And last but not least, Copy Cat Panera cream of chicken and wild rice soup. We made this yesterday and there’s still plenty left so I think we’re all set for the weekend.
If you haven’t made it yet you’ll want to give it a try. It’s the perfect meal for a cold and rainy day. One more day of rain to go… And then it’s sunny skies and back to working in the garden again. 🙂
I hope you have a nice weekend.
Peace Out.
