WIS, WWA | I passed!

The Frugal Girl

Sunday This was the day I had the squash soup/homemade crouton combo, in an effort to clean out my freezer. I got a bowl of ramen (with an extra soy-marinated egg, thank you very much) and Zoe got a sushi burrito.

Review the ingredient list carefully to determine what you need to buy. ** To accompany salads, I like to serve ALDI’s Take and Bake bread. You can buy a box of pita crisps for less, but the homemade version is much better and worth the extra 65 cents and time. Cut the pita bread into 8 triangles and place on a baking sheet.
