1/20/12 Egg McWhoWhos and Goat Pizza

For breakfast we had Egg McWhoWhos or homemade egg sandwiches. A third lb. Grass-fed real smoked bacon, cooked, 1/8 LB. Thinly sliced cheddar, 4 English muffins and 4 eggs fresh from our chickens, three scrambled and one over easy. (Phyllis prefers hers deconstructed, so hers is with the muffin on the side). Cost - $2.00 For lunch, my dad had the remainder of the pasta bake that I had frozen withsome of the goat sausage and a bit of mozzarella added. The kids and I had goat sausage pizza with garlic sautéed spinach, a sprinkle of feta cheese, a couple greek olives and black olives with a sprinkle of oregano and granulated garlic on top. Cost - this used up the rest of the goat sausage, and pasta bake for a total cost of $6.00. For dinner we had leftovers from the night before, i.e. Roast chicken, mashed potatoes and peas and carrots. This was an expensive dinner since we inadvertently lost the leftover chicken. Wahhhh! Most saddening. Total cost of dinner.... $25.00. Ouch. Food waste is a problem for restaurants and home cooks as well. This was particularly hard for me, because I really wanted to see just how far I could stretch it.
