I told you on Monday to expect a post on Angel Food Ministries soon, and here it is. We used them for the first time this past month, and I am totally impressed. We’ll be using them again, that’s for sure! We bought two boxes and here’s what we got for 60 bucks:
2 pounds of pinto beans
2 bags of pizza poppers
7 pounds of chicken bites
2 pounds of ground turkey
2 pounds of broccoli
2 bags of french fries
2 pork tenderloins
4 pounds of boneless skinless chicken breast
2 boxes of mac and cheese
2 boxes of chicken flavored rice mx
2 boxes of oatmeal cookies
2 boxes of shelf-stable milk
3 pounds of steak
8 cheddar-beef brats
2 dozen eggs
There may be more that I am forgetting, but I really don’t think the price can be beat, and the quality is excellent! We had the steak last night, and it was so tender that some of the pieces came apart from their own weight as I was putting it on the grill. I got read to cut mine at the table, and it just shredded apart.
I don’t know how we’ll use all of this, but I definitely see chicken and noodles, chicken and pastry, chicken and dumplings and chicken and rice in our near future, all made with the chicken bites.
And next month? We’re doing it again, and the boxes will include:
1.5 lb. Ribeye Steaks (4 x 6 oz.)
4.5 lb. (Avg) Split Chicken Breast Family Tray Pack
26 oz. Heat and Serve Meatloaf and Brown Gravy
1 lb. Chicken Breast Fajita Strips
1 lb. Boneless Center-Cut Pork Chops (4 x 4 oz.)
1 lb. Fully Cooked Meatballs
1 lb. All Meat Hot Dogs
1 lb. Frozen Sliced Carrots
1 lb. California Blend Vegetables
1 lb. Pasta
28 oz. Marinara Sauce
48 oz. Hawaiian Punch
32 oz. Borden 2% Reduced Fat Shelf Stable Milk
12 ct. Corn Tortillas
One Dozen Eggs
One Dessert Item
We’ll get two boxes again, and we may get one of the “special” boxes as well. If you are trying to stretch your food budget, I seriously recommend Angel Food. As we go through the month, I’ll let you know more about how we used some of the different foods!
P.S. The french fries are also good. We had some with the corndogs I picked up BOGO at Piggly Wiggly on Saturday.
