SNAP Challenge Day 3

Remember?  Yesterday Chris bought a 10 lb bag of rice?  So we only had $6 to spend on day 3. 
Chris and I both had yogurt for breakfast.  Lunch was leftover from the night before, so we had the whole $6 to spend for dinner. 

So we went to Chinatown to purchase cheap goodies.  Chris had a plan to make feijoada.  We already had black beans, so we bought pork belly, pork shoulder, onion, and green bell pepper = $6.30.  I thought we did pretty well. 

Mustard green in the picture is from a jar in the pantry. 

We shopped at Hong Kong Supermarket.  When you are watching your budget, it's a good place to go.  They have everything!
