I’m in a Facebook cooking group and they do a theme challenge each month. April is Depression Era or Frugal. So I decided to go as cheap and gourmet as possible. Soldiers and eggs with dead nettle pesto.

Homemade: bread, butter Home raised: goose eggs Home foraged: pecans, dead nettles, wild garlic

I made a soft skin and a hard skin loaf because my wife likes a softer crust.

Paid for: Salt, pepper, EVOO, flour, yeast, heavy cream. Cost per person: $1.13

    Yeah, that’s the ones I was talking about! I freeze em so I have dark greens through the winter. Apparently the steaming water is great for your hair too.
