We love to eat.
Not only that, but we rarely ever bat an eye at spending upwards of $80 on a single meal.
That, however, can put a huge dent in our disposable income if we eat out several times a month.
Currently, we spend approximately $400 (Sometimes more) on eating out.
That's on top of our monthly grocery bill.
Taking all of that in consideration, we are currently spending about $1000 a month on food.
Amazing isn't it?
While we love food and the experience of dining out, we've decided to cut back.
We would much rather spend that money on vacations or weekend trips with our children.
This led us to the eat-in challenge.
We are challenging ourselves to only eat out twice a month.
These dining out experiences mean everything.
So if we go out to Brio's twice a month fine.
That also means, if we go to Taco Bell twice a month fine, but we're done.
We are now on Day 9 of the challenge, and have successfully played by the rules.
We have already ate out for the month, so that is why we are only on Day 9 when today is the 10th.
For the new year we took our children to Buca di Beppo, and it was delicious!
Anyway, here are a few of the meals we have made so far during our challenge:
Rosemary-dijon crusted pork loin with roasted veggies and a mixed green salad.
Getting the kids involved. We made french loaf pizza and of course the bread was homemade!
mmmm, Curry!
The most amazing veggie Lasagna ever!
