Trying to Eat Well on $4.00 a day

Tuesday, September 12, 2006

Well I know that Rachel Ray has $40 a day to spend on restaurant food, but myself I am going to try to have great breakfasts, lunches and dinners for about $4.00 a day. 

This morning I had a wonderful bowl of rice and greenbeans for around $.45 cents.  Only $.35 for the green beans at Aldi's and about ten cents worth of rice. 

This afternoon I am planning on a lunch of guacamole (avocados I bought at the open air market, Eastern Market last week for $.50 a piece.  I am going to make this wonderful lunch at my desk today.  I have part of an onion and the avocado.  I am going to the little store down the street to get chips for $.99 (this way I only eat one little bag and not a huge bag at one setting).  I also have a huge cucumber to eat that I paid $.25 cents for so, my lunch will be a grand total of $1.74

I have $1.81 left for dinner which will consist of a meatloaf sausage on a bun and some noodles and maybe a can of corn.
