The beginning of January I posted how Hubs and I decided for the whole month of January we wouldn’t go out to eat, with a few {mostly already planned} exceptions.
Well.. we’ve been making it happen! 
The first week it was a little hard, this was often heard in our house…
“So wanna go out to eat?“… “no, we’re eating at home“… “aww man“
But we’ve managed to get through the month and have found that we love eating at home.
Hubs has been cooking almost all of his meals, not because I won’t cook them, but because he really likes to cook. He gets in the kitchen and creates fun new meals for himself. More of that to come later.
I’ve tried several foods that I’ve never cooked for myself before… Acorn Squash and Polenta, just to name a couple.
The thing I like about staying home, you really can control what goes into your food as well as your portions. You also can have left overs for the week. I love left overs. I made a big bowl of verde salsa {YUM!} and we had that one week. I’d put the verde salsa on wraps, it was so super good!
Tomorrow I’m going to do a post of what I eat during a day. I figured I could easily write everything out in text {boring}, or I could take pictures of everything to give you a visual {exciting!}. So be sure to check that out tomorrow!
Have you been eating in more this month? Have you tried new foods lately?

I used to do that each December! It was a great way to save money for other Christmas expenses AND try to stay healthy at a time when there are lots of yummy, but not so nutritious, temptations. Hmm, you’ve inspired me. Maybe I’ll eat in all of February. It is a SHORT month!
