What's Behind Door Number One

For those of you who have been keeping up, you know this is my kitchen.  I just thought I would give you a run down of what I buy at the grocery store every week.  The nutritional value is equivalent to what I ate when living in the dorms at college, so don't freak out about my simplistic menu.  It's not because I lack food, it's because I'm only feeding myself most of the time and I'm easy to please. 

Let's get started... 



Coffee.  The most important thing in any person's kitchen.


Peanut butter and tortillas.  I don't typically get roasted honey nut pb, but I was paying too close attention to the super crunch to see the rest of the label.  It's even in English.  I need help.

             

Pasta, some version of tomato sauce, and ritz crackers.  If you can't already tell I'm grouping things in meals.  Ritz and pasta?  Works for me.


Pancake mix and orange juice.  Obviously I'm not putting these meals in any particular order.  I don't own any measuring utensils, so I just mix the pancakes up the Honduran way.  Or the grandmother way.  They're the same thing.


Milk and cereal.  I don't think I need to explain this one.


Eggs.  I like them scrambled and hot.  They're easy...and if you put milk in them they're fluffy!!  It took me coming down to Honduras and eating supper with a native Minnesotan to figure this out.

Then there is the occasional can of nuts or bag of pretzels or whatever else looked good in the store.  I have yet to buy meat and cook it myself.  Someday I probably will...maybe.  When I go out to eat is when I get my ration of meat.  Just like college, I'm telling you.
