Nov 21: Spanish Mussels with Chris and Tomato-Wine Sauce with Garlic Bread

Lunch

The Foodies had an odd lunch with only one Crispbread speed with Branston Pickle and Cheddar as we’d had two small Pancakes each for breakfast.

  • The Rye Crispbread was $3.29 for a pack of 20, or 17c per serve
  • The Cheddar was $3.49 and we used about 60%, or 53 per serve
  • Branston Pickle was $13.31 for the jar, and we used about 1/5th, or 67c per serve.

Not counting the Pancakes, lunch was $1.37 per serve.

Dinner

Tonight we made a welcome return to Spanish Mussels with Chorizo and Tomato-Wine Sauce, again without the Heavy Cream. We served with toasted Italian Bread liberally spread with Spicy Garlic Spread for an amped up Garlic Toast.

  • The pre-cooked Mussels were $2.29 or $1.15 per serve
  • Sherry adds 58c per serve
  • The Chorizo was $5.11 after all discounts and we used half, or $1.28 per serve
  • Add 85c for other ingredients
  • The Italian Bread is 29c per serve
  • The Garlic Spread adds 40c per serve.

A very tasty meal for $4.56 per serve.
