I do my shoping once a week and complete sometimes with a quick stop at the meat or vegi shop. I don't make my menues I just have an idea of what we need alltogether, and it allows me to invent a new recipe and be creative with the same ingredients I get every week or so. At the moment, for example I will get leeks. Half of it will go in a soup that we will eat with fresh cooked bread and cheese.(sunday evenings) or followed by pancakes, waffles or crêpes) The other half I frye it in a pan and keep it for a leek tart(leks + eggs beaten up with milk + grated cheese + diced bacon on the top) served with carrot salad or beetroot.(it serves 5 adults) I feel we eat quite differently from americans. We always trye to have a raw salad or vegetables... It is interesting! I decided not to accumulate because it is sleeping money …
