Bountiful Basket- March 29, 2014

This week I choose to get the regular basket with the Guac & Salsa Pack and the Tortilla pack as my add-ons. For more info about Bountiful Baskets click here.


This is what came in my basket for this week. I received 2 heads of romaine lettuce, 2 heads of cauliflower, 3 crowns of broccoli, 2 red bell peppers, 4 english cucumbers, 6 zucchini/squash (?), 5 tomatoes, 6 apples, 3 bananas, 1 pint of strawberries, 4 oranges, and 1 grapefruit.



This add-on was the Guac and Salsa add-on. This cost $14.00 extra. I received one bag of uncooked tortilla chips (so I can choose whether to fry or bake them), 6 avocados, 1 bunch of cilantro, 6-7 green onions, 9 tomatillos, 5 jalapeƱos, 4 anaheim peppers, 5 onions,  and 1 garlic.




This is what was in my tortilla pack. This add-on cost $12.00. Great thing about theses is that you can freeze them. One follower on their Facbook page suggested that adding wax paper between the tortillas would help reduce waste, That way I can choose how many or how little I want to thaw at a time.



My conventional basket, in my opinion, was a great deal. I got more them  my money's worth. The Guac and salsa pack however, I feel was overpriced I thing an $8 price would be more appropriate. So I will not be ordering this again unless the price goes down. I think the tortilla was reasonably priced. The fact that I am able to freeze them is a big plus. For the total price I paid I think i still ended up getting a good deal.
