Menu and Grocery List

This week's menu:

Monday: Kohlrabi Curry with Rice
Tuesday: Stuffed Acorn Squash with Kale Gratin
Wednesday: Either Old Bay Roasted Fish or Fish Tostadas (depends on what we get in the box)
Thursday: Left open to plan around what's in the CSA box
Friday: Parent's Night Out
Saturday: Intentionally left open (I'll cook since I won't Friday night)

At the grocery store today, I had an important lesson reinforced for me....never go to the grocery store when you are hungry and pregnant. That's a lethal combination almost guaranteeing you will buy things you don't need. Enough said, here's the list.

sesame oil
aluminum foil
organic black beans
organic kidney beans
bulk cinnamon (50¢ worth)
sugar
organic bulk whole wheat flour
whole almonds (both salted and unsalted)
all natural peanut butter
olive oil
unbleached white flour
organic rice
YoBaby
cheddar cheese
a pound of organic potatoes
2 Texas lemons
organic edamame
1 1/2 pounds of tilapia
spinach fettuccine
green olive bruschetta spread
hazelnuts
a small assortment of bulk halloween candy (I had a coupon---still really no excuse for this one)
whole wheat tortillas
two kinds of organic milk (whole and skim)
riccotta cheese
mozzarella cheese
sliced almonds

A few of things were planning in advance, just because I was thinking about it, like the hazelnuts. I'll possibly use the fettuccine later in the week depending on the contents of the CSA box.
