That’s right, we bought over 60 pounds of produce in one shopping trip.
30 pounds of yellow onions (Early bird special)
12 pounds of tomatoes
Plus 1 bunch of bananas (Thursday Produce Day), 4 pounds of oranges, 12 avocados (Thursday Produce Day), 2 pounds of jalapenos, 3 pounds of carrots, and 2 bunches of cilantro.
This all started out because the onions were part of the early bird special at 11 cents a pound at Pro’s Ranch Markets. That is the cheapest we have ever seen onions in the store so we jumped at a chance to stock up.
The first thing we did was make a huge batch of salsa then the following night we used our food processor to chop up all remaining onions (we used a couple in the salsa) and put them into snack size zip top baggies for storing in the freezer.
And the best part, we only spent about $15 for all of it.
What is the best deal on produce you’ve found lately?
