Week 8
These were my two recipes:
Shopping list: a few cloves of Garlic,1 pound Tomatoes, 1 pound cucumber, parsley, heavy cream.
Did you find significant differences? If so, what were they?
-It ended up being more affordable at target. It also seemed like they had more opportunities to save money.
Were you surprised by anything?
-Target was so much cheaper. I guess they can afford to mark down the groceries because they know you will buy other items there.
Will this influence your shopping in the future?
-I trust that the food is sourced better at trader joe’s so I will end up buying more important items there.
Did you save any money? If so, how?
-My family has the target card, so I saved 5% off the end total.
This week I made linguini with a parmesan garlic sauce. My parents visited for the weekend and brought me homemade pasta. I really wanted to use it while it was still fresh. It cooks way faster than store bought pasta. I like al dente pasta so I tried not to over cook it. This recipe was extremely flavorful and I felt like I needed to go to the gym after I ate my pasta. I definitely could've used whole wheat pasta if I was trying to make this recipe healthier. There is also room for protein in this dish, maybe chicken or shrimp. I would highly suggest this recipe for special occasions.
