As I mentioned yesterday, I have discovered something fabulous that makes salads super easy for me! Here it is…
So, what is it? It’s a FridgeSmart Tupperware container that is designed to make fresh produce stay fresh for longer. At first, I wasn’t much of a believer. But, once I washed all my veggies and tossed them in I realised that 1.5 weeks later they were still good as new. Apparently, this is all due to the “vents” that you see at the front that allows them to breathe. These are smart containers!
I also have a smaller one that I keep berries in. I LOVE that one because I love my berries, but always have a hard time finishing off the big containers. This definitely helps them stay fresh!
As for the veggies, I wash up all my salad toppers and keep them in the big container.
I love it because I have NO excuse not to make a perfectly delicious and healthy salad within minutes! It makes things so much easier. I love it!
For lunch today I made a salad with the leftovers from dinner last night. I crumbled a chickpea patty on a bed of lettuces, tossed on a couple leftover potatoes and drizzled the leftover sauce over everything. It was very filling, but very good!
After lunch, I decided to face grocery shop #3 of the challenge. I’m happy to report it was a success! I spent $33.74 in total. I think I am really starting to get a handle on this! 
Here’s the shop:
I even indulged a little this week with the fresh bakery bread. Though, I must admit that I did have a little help this week because my Mom sent me some fruit from home; so I didn’t have to buy a lot of it.
Aside from that, this week I tried rice milk – usually I buy Almond Breeze but it is more expensive. Hopefully the rice milk is okay! I also realised that red peppers are almost double the price of green peppers. Being a fan of red peppers I still went for it, but if you like the green then that’s a great option! Oh, and the avocado was $1.34! I don’t buy them often so I’m not sure what the price should be, but I think that’s pricey!
Alright, off to bed for this gal!

That’s the coolest container ever. Where’d you get it?
I know! I can’t get over its awesome-ness. A local Tupperware representative had a booth set-up at a recent festival downtown, so I was lucky enough to be able to buy it right off the table! But, usually the only way you can get Tupperware is through holding/attending a Tupperware party. Apparently, you can get a lot of free stuff if you are the host of a party!
