This weeks recipe is not only quick and easy, it’s healthy! To help cut your grocery budget, I highly recommend going vegetarian now and then. Meat is one of the most expensive items on our grocery lists and it is something American consume in excess, so I try to have 1 or more meat free meals a week. It’s healthier and cheaper! Meijer prices below are listed from the 02/12/09-02/18/09 advertisement.
3 large avocados (4/$5 @ Marsh

Serve on a bed of lettuce or surrounded by fruit for a healthy meat-free meal or serve as a side dish! Fruit & lettuce are all on sale this week. Mix and match based on the deals.
Enjoy!
