What We Ate
Saturday
Mr. FG and I went out and shared a pizza.
Sunday
It was a really unseasonably warm day, which made us feel like eating a little more summery.
So we had grilled chicken sandwiches, veggie chips, and some fresh fruit.
Monday
I had made some egg bread, so we had that, plus sauteed asparagus, plus a rotisserie chicken I asked Mr. FG to pick up on his way home from work.
Tuesday
I made a batch of pulled pork, which we ate on buns, with broccoli on the side.
Wednesday
For a variety of reasons, my initial dinner plan did not work out. So, we got Chick-Fil-A for $33.
Thursday
Last time we went to do a kitten shift, I ended up not having time to cook dinner. So, this week I made a better plan with that in mind.
I made a BLT salad to use up the leftover rotisserie chicken from earlier in the week…nice and quick to throw together.
And earlier in the day, I had made some more egg bread.
Friday
I’m planning to make some Cuban sandwiches.

How on earth do 5 of you eat from Chick-Fil-A for $33? We recently moved to the US from Canada so CFA is new to me but I’ve never had a meal that inexpensive with my four kids (who are younger than yours)! I’m impressed.

I did have one in-app offer for a free 8-pack of chicken nuggets, but the other four meals were full price. Is this maybe just a difference in Canadian/U.S. prices, perhaps?
