Dinner Day 1- Veg Pot Roast
This evenings special was the Vegetarian Pot Roast.
Alex (miss I dissected a chicken wing and will no longer eat meat)has but one regret in leaving her flesh and bone dinner options behind. Namely: Pot Roast.
Today I began our month long experiment with a peace offering: Beefless Pot Roast.
Ingredients:
Home Style Beefless Tips from Gardein ($5/package) (at Kroger)
Carrots
Potatoes
Onion Soup Mix
Garlic Cloves
2 Med. Onions
Cost: $8 for a family of four = $2/person
Served with a green salad
Family Approval Rating:
Alex: Ummmmm......tastes just like meat! Do it again!
Joseph: Thumbs up! How much did this cost?
Liam: Can you make this with meat next time? (to which Alex responded "just don't tell him"
Mom: This will work.
