Grocery shopping and week 1 menu

I will be following the 30 day menu listed in Alissa Cohen's book, "Living on Live Food". The grocery bill for this week was about $165 for me and the family. I bought a lot of start up items live almond butter and olive oil that will last a few weeks. Everything I bought was organic. I even bought a bottle of organic wine without sulfites (this is the only alcohol allowed). In addition to the following menu I bought coconut date rolls, one raw bar to try, stuff to make raw lemon coconut cookies and stuff to make sushi chips (nuts, coconut, and seasonings in a food processor and dehydrated on top of Nori seaweed sheets). The menu for this week from the book is:
fettucine alfredo (veggies in noodle shapes with a nut cheese sauce)
mock salmon
date nut torte
2 types of salad dressing
collard rolls
Pad Thai
banana ice cream
tons of fruit for breakfast

Wow, what a menu! Sounds great, especially that nut-cheese sauce. The timing could not be better - no more heating up the kitchen in this hot weather. Good luck tomorrow. Let us know how the day goes.
