I've decided to start blogging my eating adventures. Mostly because cooking has become increasingly boring lately and this will add some excitement to my life. I'm not that girl who shares what she eats because I have an eating disorder. I don't believe in dieting. I think diets, like budgets, are lame and evil. On that financial note, some may consider me cheap and wonder why I can't afford regular food, this has nothing to do with that. Really I am just trying to be more resourceful so my money can be used for more important things. I decided to put cost next to my meals. If it is something I have in the pantry it's free which I realize isn't super accurate but going forward, if I grocery shop, I'll consider those costs.
On my sister's recommendation I stole the title from Carrie Sun's blog on hospital eating .

why i'm over chicken

Breakfast: Mushroom egg scramble again ($0)
Lunch: Finished off my broccoli pie and brussel sprout salad with pita chips ($0)
Dinner: A few weeks back I found some chicken in the freezer so i cooked it, shredded it, refroze it and was just bursting with ideas of what to do with it...chicken quesadillas, chicken salad...chicken tortilla soup...etc. In reality I ate it twice and then was frustrated deciding if I should keep it frozen (and have to chip away at it) or keep it refrigerated (and shorten the shelf life).  Because I'm lazy I kept it in the fridge ate it maybe one more time and then forgot about it. Tonight I was thinking of using it again and surprise surprise it was bad.  Don't worry I could smell the rancidness and didn't try to eat it.  I think this happened to me last semester too.  I'm over chicken.  Have no fear, instead I made a mushroom quesadilla with some corn tortillas that were donated to me recently.  It was really delicious, I'm not joking it was amazing.  I also had some green beans, they were great too.  ($0)
