turkey drives this basket at $4.99, 20% of the total. The next biggest lines are vegetables ($4.98) and sugar ($3.99). $15.94 of the basket - 63% - is package remainder: food you buy because stores sell packages and recipes call for amounts. It does not vanish, it sits in your kitchen for the next meal.

Cooked turkey combined with your favorite frozen veggies means you can throw this stir fry together quickly for a healthy weekday dinner.
