This has nothing to do with my usual topics.
So I'm coming home from work yesterday, and my parents watch the kids 'til I get home on Thursdays. They had already fed them so I needed food. Typically I'd grab some fast food or frozen food at home, but I went a different route.
I stopped at the grocery store, and for $5.51 got some fresh red snapper, and carrots. While waiting in line, googled for red snapper recipie ('cause I can't spell), and decided to make the first one off the list.
About 35 minutes later, I was eating a Cajun style blackened snapper fish with rice and sauteed glazed carrots. For about six bucks, the same or likely less than I would have spent on fast food. And healthier too (I used much less butter than either of those recipes called for).
Stop at the grocery store next time you're on your way home and needing dinner, you might be surprised how cheap/healthy you can come up with a dinner.
