A few months ago I decided to start eating a vegetarian diet at home largely because meat is just too expensive and I can't afford to buy it anymore. Buying meat just eats up too much of my already stretched food budget.
I've actually been enjoying eating vegetarian.
I'm not strict. I eat eggs, drink millk and because Chynna needs tuna juice to take her daily pill, I also eat canned tuna. But that is the extent of my "meat" eating at home.
When I go out I will order meat. The other day I had chinese food and had lemon chicken and sweet and sour pork. I the last few weeks I've also had a hamburger at A&W and a Sweet Onion Chicken Teriaky sub at Subway.
My brother and his girl friend are coming to dinner on Monday. Neither are vegetarians, and she is diabetic so she needs to have a proper protein in her diet.
I was going to make BBQ ribs but they are really costly and beyond my budget. I happen to have 2 pounds of ground beef still in my freezer from a few months ago, so I decided I am going to make my scruptious meat loaf that everyone loves so much.
Now normally I would be drooling over the thought of making and eating this meat loaf, but I can tell you that it's doing absolutely nothing for me right now.
In fact I think I'm going to go back to Safeway on Monday morning and pick myself up some veggie nuggets or something, to have for dinner while they have meat loaf, lol
And I am going to send the left over meat loaf home with them.
I'm not strict vegetarian, and I still eat meat, so I can't figure out why I'm shunning at cooking it and eating it at home, when I do have meat here.
