Rice and Beans
The budget is tight enough to warrent using lots of rice and beans--but rice doesn't grow in Idaho, and the last time I went to get long black grass seed "wild" rice, it was out of stock. So other than some imported rice and barley, we're eating a lot of mixed beans, as many local as I can buy. We have bean soup two to three times a week--sometimes for lunch and dinner. I'm still trying for locavore eating, but it's a real challenge during the winter, when the Huz is clamoring for "green veggies" like fresh spinach and lettuce, not green beans and spinach. Time to start preparing sprouts again. Still, I guess locavore eating for at least six to eight months out of the year is far better than zero months.
