Ration Challenge: Wednesday-Thursday

PotatoesI’m continuing with the Ration Challenge. For this week, my diet consists of the same rations provided to Syrian Refugees in Jordan. This is a fundraiser for Church World Service. You can make your donation at this link:

Since I have a limited choice of ingredients, it’s understandable that there’s a lot of repetition.  For lunch, I again had soup.  with  rice and chicken bouillon.    On Wednesday, it also contained chickpeas (garbanzo beans), and on Thursday it contained  lentils.

Based upon my fundraising success, I earned a few bonus items.  These included a potato and two eggs.  My dinner both days consisted of fried potatoes and egg, shown above.

RiceCakesI had a total of about 9 cups of rice, and I’ve only used about a cup per day.  I used some of it today to make the rice cakes shown here.  (The recipe can be found on my Sunday post.)
