Recipes February 12 - 18

I don't know what it is about us.  Without fail, we spend $100 at the grocery store every week.  Doesn't matter whether I'm making 5 recipes or 2...it's always about $100.  I wonder what the average monthly grocery bill for two people is right now.  Because $400 for two people seems a little high to me.

At any rate, here are my recipes for this week:

1.  I picked my drink recipe out of my juicing book.  It's actually a smoothie recipe that calls for a banana, 8 strawberries, & some apple juice.  I have some cranberry juice I need to use up so I'm just going to substitute that in for the apple juice.  The strawberries I have are frozen, so I imagine this smoothie will turn out pretty tart.

2.  "World's Best Lasagna"  Yep, you heard correctly.  The hubs has requested more lasagna.  Considering Valentine's Day is on Tuesday and I haven't gotten anything for him, that's the least I could do, right?  We shall see whether this is indeed the world's best lasagna.



3.  Reese's Peanut Butter Chocolate Cake - this is for the hubs as well.  I don't plan on putting those cups on top though.  It looks a little...overkill.  I say that but once I get going, there may be no stopping me!!




That's it for this week!  The lasagna lasted us so long last week that it was only today that I made the grilled cheese and tomato soup.  In other words, we still have soup leftovers to carry us through this week.

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
