$50 Grocery Challenge - Spent $49.73

I had to buy a lot of ingredients that I didn't have on hand, so I am skipping the shrimp in the gumbo and have to make my own chicken broth with chicken I have as well as pulling out meat from the freezer for our meals this week. Several of the recipes I chose would easily last a few days, so I either need to start cutting the recipe in half, freezing them for future meals, or planning less meals in a week.

Here is the breakdown:

1.49 English Muffins
4.84 Red Grapes
2.00 Red Pepper
