- fresh seasonal produce, such as lettuce and spinach for green salads, currently out of season for my garden
- honey -- I can buy a large jug of honey at the wholesaler for a fraction of grocery store prices. Honey would be nice, but not a necessity.
- more meat, specifically beef -- I miss having beef
- fish -- I don't care much for fish, especially canned fish. If I bought higher quality fresh fish, I may like it more.
- aged cheese -- cheese aged for a year or more is the lower in lactose than most grocery store cheese, and better for my system. But cheese is not a necessity for me, just something nice to have.
- fresh fruit -- one of my daughters would love to have more fresh fruit in winter. We do have ample frozen and dried fruit, but she really loves fresh fruit.
- junky stuff -- the other daughter would be in heaven if I would buy Pop-Tarts, her absolute favorite breakfast (if you can even call it that!).
I suspect that I'll try to balance nutrient-dense additional foods with particular preferences for each member of my family. But I'm open to ideas and suggestions.
What would you do with an extra $10 to $15 per month to spend on food?
