Food again!
Co-op Pickup Day!!!
1 lb lean ground beef
1 lb Pacific cod fillets
2 lb. chicken thighs
4 (5 oz) pork chops
3 peaches
4 pears
4 apples
2 tomatoes
1 head romaine lettuce
5 lbs potatoes
1 bunch of radishes
1 lb brown rice
Whole wheat bread
2 sourdough bread
4 lbs cooked chicken nuggets
2 loaves sourdough bread
Total: $33.50
The picture above is after we took all the meat and 2 of the bread loaves to the freezer and the children and I ate all the peaches and one pear (and a radish, but that didn't go over quite as well). Still, looks pretty, doesn't it?
In October, there will be sirloin beef tips, bacon, locally made blackberry jam, German rye bread and Colosimo's Italian sausage. The fruits and veggies aren't announced until the week before you pick up, but I bet there will be squash!
Again, it's the Utah Food Co-op--what a great way to eat healthier, support your community and help others!
P.S. Don't live in Northern Utah? Don't worry--there are probably co-ops where you live, too! Check out: http://www.coopdirectory.org/directory.htmLabels: Dinner Fairy, food, Utah Food Co-op

Food, Glorious Food!
Pretty much the coolest thing lately is
the Utah Food Co-op
Last month we got 1 lb ground beef, 2 lbs chicken breasts, 1 lb beef fajita strips, 1 lb lean pork, cubed, 3 kinds of fresh fruit, 5 kinds of fresh veggies, a loaf of whole wheat bread, 1 lb of pinto beans and a lb of nutty granola
for
$25.25
Ya, no joke. The fruit included a cantelope and grapes (and maybe apples?). The veggies included avocados, carrots and eggplant. We don't actually like eggplant, we learned. But we tried it!
We ordered this month, too. I'll post a picture when we pick it up.Labels: food, Utah Food Co-op
