Mind vs Stomach... So it begins

Being a college student a common wondering is whether or not we'll have enough food to eat dinner, and if we'll have enough money for groceries this week/month (depending on who you are). So after looking at my ever decreasing food supplies and then looking at my bank account I realized these last few weeks are going to be fun. Lucky for me some of the grocery stores near me were having case lot sales. And that means that everyone's favorite things are dirt dirt dirt cheap. So as I was consulting my pocket book and the local adds I decided why not challenge myself.... Well that challenge came after I got home and unloaded my groceries. That challenge being "can I make the food I have at the moment last me till after finals." So I took inventory of all of my food I have roughly 62 ingredients, with a total of 66 meals that I'll be eating. So I don't know if ya'll want the whole list but here it is, in pretty picture fun format.

I forgot I also have a bulb of garlic, and some homemade carrot sticks. No food stash is complete with out fresh garlic. 

So there is the list... roughly 62 items all of which are roughly spelled correctly. So here's how it's going to go I'm going to keep track of what genius delicious foods I can create from this limited stash of food. And then I'll share with ya'll what I was able to come up with.

Oh and if you dear readers have a great idea of something that I could make with this hodgepodge of ingredents let me know and I may just try making it.

As for the report for today... I had cereal for breakfast, and grilled PB&J for lunch (Like a grilled cheese sandwich but with a PB&J... It was a Junction discovery oh so many years ago), and for dinner I intend on finishing off that Mac&Cheese with some peas and a hot dog.

Any ways, we'll see how this challenge goes. I'm way excited to figure out what I can make with out having to get more groceries. All though if I can do it I may have some friends over for dinner before finals, which would include just a little trip back to the grocery store.

Anyways, share your ideas... and I'll keep you posted.
