Today I:
Baked a loaf of whole wheat bread.
Made homemade tacos for dinner using a bunch of individual spices instead of from a mix. Healthier and with no fillers.
Cut up a 2 and a half pound pot roast into chunks to make chili tomorrow. If I had bought the pre-cut beef it would have cost twice as much for just under half the amount.
There will be enough chili leftover to package a family size meal for the freezer.

Vizsla, when you look at the ingredients of store-bought bread, avoid those with "wheat flour" listed as this stuff is ground so fine it's just like white flour.
Go with the loaves that list "whole wheat flour" in their ingredients. Apparently, there's a big difference.
(Maybe you knew all this already.)
