With Covid19 numbers increasing in our city & other places I have decided to curb side grocery shop for a awhile. So, that takes some planning.. which leads me to make some recipes this week with groceries I have in the house already! Here are 3 meals I am going to make the next few days..
Usually I decide what to make for dinner & would run to the grocery store but now I am not going to do that. I am going to stock up on staples & then eat our way through them, then re-order. I have to take stock & place an order today.
We have a great independent grocery store here in Edmonton, The Italian Centre Shop, that will get an order ready in about 2 hours so I use that often if I need something fast! Otherwise I order and pick up a few days later. I am also trying to figure out how to use Instacart to order from Costco… there are some items not on the list…like butter!
This is what I am going to cook . tonight, Wednesday & Thursday of this week
