Freegan Cheese!

I was super excited to find this I mean they literally must have thrown their entire fridge out everything was still super cold to touch.  Its funny because when ever I say I rarely find cheese in my hauls, I find that very thing! So weird, but yea I love this cheese and there were more expensive Brie's that others took.

This haul was really unexpected because we were only waiting for another stores closing and then saw this store starting throwing stuff out and just decided to dig in.  And we found so much.. they threw out like at least 5 super cold still Rotiserre chickens.  I took one and just cut it up so I could store in my Freezer. Haul value at least $80! 

The main reason for the Freegan Rescue was my new expensive addiction these awesome Juices! Value of this haul $140 crazy rite??

Freegan Haul

I've been so absent minded lately .. this is the haul I got the veggies for my Ramen.. The rest I just stir fried in Garlic.  This was probably the worst of all my hauls.. I also found out that day my spot actually was closing down entirely.. :(     so no more epic Organic Earth Bound Salads bummer.  I actually went with two other freegans to another spot and thats where I picked up the FROZEN squid and Fish and NAAN.. I think that made the trip plus its always good to have bread.. and in this rescue I got Artisan Wine Bread.  So overall I'd say my haul saved me $40 still great!

Freegan Haul

I didn't go on a food rescue this week....yet ... but I did realize I'd forgotten to post a freegan haul a couple weeks ago.  So since I had taken the picture.. I 'd might as well post it.  I literally, ate off organic Salads for two whole weeks from this haul!  It was the one I referred to as the sorta locals fighting over haul incident.  While they were fighting I guess they were not into salads but there was literally a whole huge bag of these Organic Earth Bound Salads in super clean mint condition separated in a clear Garbage bag.  I felt really sad.. that I had to leave so many behind.. I truly did.  But I literally could not carry anything else.  So from this haul I got 9 packages of Earthbound Organic Salad mixes and 3 regular non Organic ones.  I got 2 boxes of ORGANIC cherry tomoto's, Organic mushrooms, 2 bunches of ORGANIC broccoli, chives and 2 boxes of fancy Margarine.  I also got like excellent condition OXTAILs.  It was a great haul and super easy because everything was so easy to find.  Worth about $75.  Only disappointing thing was there was no Bread .. and because I was totally overburdened with all the stuff I had to carry.. I didn't go to any location.

Freegan Meal Ideas

One of the most common obstacles, I used to face when wanting a Tuna Sandwich was never having Celery , bread or Mayo on hand.  So while I was lucky enough to get Celery on one of my more recent hauls, it gave me the prefect idea to make a Tuna Sandwich.  I even instead of mayo used some of the packaged coleslaw packs (I had stretched to a potato salad) to stretch my tuna further.  Basically I added canned tuna, mixed it with my potato cole slaw, some chopped celery and added on to a bed of kale (also from my organic salad freegan find) and put on seeded Italian bread!

This has to be one of the fanciest tuna sandwiches I've ever made and everything but the tuna was from my Freegan food rescues.
