The tomato and bell pepper came from the garden.

The nopales were an experiment from foraged cactus. Definitely going to try a different recipe for that because the one I used left a lot of gel okra like gel making plating a little harder than it should be. Once I find the right recipe cactus will be a practically free food source

Instead of buying chicken thighs I bought a whole roaster and butchered it myself. This dramatically cuts the cost of chicken as long as you are going to use the whole thing. In this case I just used the thighs but I have uses for the rest including all the “waste” parts going to make a stock at some point.

Cost per person: $3.42 About a dollar of that was just cheese
